Abstract

The invention discloses a chip device and method for simulating tumor penetration in vitro. The chip device includes a chip; the chip is provided with at least one chamber; the chamber is provided with at least one structure for fixing cell spheres and at least one baffle structure, after the fluid flows into the chamber from the fluid inlet of the chamber, the baffle structure Under the barrier of the fixed cell sphere, the fluid flows out of the chamber through the fluid outlet of the chamber; the space size of the chamber is smaller than the space size of the three-dimensional tumor cell sphere at least in one dimension, and can accommodate at least one cell sphere. The chip device of the present invention can simulate the high density and high osmotic pressure characteristics of tumor tissue to a certain extent; can reflect the characteristics of nanoparticles and macromolecules penetrating into the tumor through convective mass transfer on the tumor surface; Predicting the penetration behavior of granular drugs in tumors is of great significance for the development, evaluation and quality monitoring of macromolecular and nanoparticle anti-tumor drugs.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a chip device and method for simulating tumor infiltration in vitro, belonging to the field of medical research and development and detection equipment. Background technique [0002] The development of drugs needs to go through two stages: preclinical research and clinical research. Although clinical research is the most effective and final method for drug screening, due to factors such as safety risks, ethics, and trial time costs, it can only be carried out under the premise of ensuring the basic effectiveness and safety of drugs. Therefore, in preclinical research, more accurate prediction of drug efficacy and safety through in vitro and animal models is the basis and guarantee for clinical research. Especially in the stage of in vitro research, developing a powerful drug evaluation model to simulate the action process of drugs in vivo is an important way to speed up the speed of drug development and screening and improve t...
