[0032] The artificial pancreatic islet body closed micro-organ cultivation device uses an artificial pancreatic islet body closed micro-organ cultivation method comprising: S1: Preparation of micro-organs: Pancreatic cells with insulin secretion function are cultivated through stem cell differentiation technology, and then cultured in a specific culture medium to form micro-organs.

[0033] S2: Design of the structure of the first connecting cover 16: Material selection: polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or titanium alloy, the surface can be modified for biocompatibility.

[0034] Pore ​​size: The pore size of the first micropore 18 and the second micropore 19 is controlled at 1-5 nanometers (for small molecule permeability) and 5-20 micrometers (for cell sealing).

[0035] Sealing of micro-organs: The micro-organs are placed in a designed first connection cover 16 to ensure that they do not come into contact with other cells in the body, but can secrete insulin through the pores.

[0036] S3: Implantation method: The sealed micro-organ is implanted into a specific location such as the abdomen through minimally invasive surgery to replace or assist the impaired pancreas.

[0037] Embodiment 3: The schemes in Example 1 and Example 2 are further introduced below in combination with specific working methods, as described below for details: Specifically, when the artificial pancreatic islet closed micro-organ cultivation device is used: Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, the base 1, the support 2 and the support plate 4 are used to support the device as a whole. The rubber connecting ring 14 is installed into the installation groove 15, and then the micro-organ is placed on the support plate 306. The first connecting cover 16 is bonded to the surface of the support plate 306. After the preparation work is completed, the second cylinder 6 is slidably installed in the first cylinder 5, and the culture liquid is injected through the fixed tube 902 on the third cylinder 8. The first electric push rod 903 on the switching component 9 is extended or shortened to change the height of the inner cylinder 901 and the connecting plate 904, thereby changing the connection state of the inner cylinder 901. When the inner cylinder 901 is connected with the fixed tube 902 and the inside of the third cylinder 8, the liquid can be diverted to the inside of the third cylinder 8. When the inner cylinder 901 is only connected with the fixed tube 902, the culture liquid can be injected into the culture area of ​​the device. Alternatively, the culture liquid can be injected into the cavity between the partition 7 and the third cylinder 8, and then the inner cylinder 901 is lowered so that the height of the bottom of the opening 11 is lower than the height of the liquid level in the cavity, thereby conveniently replenishing the culture liquid. The hydrophobic layer 13 on the guide plate 12 can prevent the liquid from being adsorbed on the surface of the guide plate 12, and the arc-shaped guide plate 12 can guide the liquid to the area on the right side of the opening 11 ( Figure 7 ), so as to subsequently adjust the overall weight of the device, thereby changing the osmotic pressure. During the process of the device infiltrating the culture fluid, the motor 301 can drive the gear 302 to rotate, driving the gear ring 303, the connecting column 304 and the connecting rod 305 to rotate, so that the support disk 306 rotates on the support plate 4. The support disk 306 can change the angle of the support when rotating, thereby changing the placement angle of the micro-organ when the culture fluid is infiltrated. By rotating the stud 3062 in the fixed cylinder 3061, the stud 3062 drives the support block 3063 to move upward, thereby changing the support effect of the device to adapt to the support of micro-tracheas of different shapes. The hollow support block 3063 inside can not only ensure the support effect, but also reduce the pressure on the micro-organ.

[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, the third connecting rod 2004 is rotated to make the first connecting rod 2001, the first sealing plate 2002 and the second connecting rod 2003 rotate in a circular motion, thereby adjusting the angle of the second connecting cover 17 on the first connecting cover 16 and changing the degree of staggering of the first micropores 18 and the second micropores 19 to facilitate the subsequent adjustment of the penetration effect of the device. The second sealing plate 2006 in the movable groove 2005 can be stably fitted with the first sealing plate 2002. Since the position of the scale mark corresponds to the position of the tip of the pointer 2007, after the pointer 2007 moves to the appropriate position of the scale line, the rubber damping block 22 of the protruding part can provide resistance when the second connecting rod 2003 rotates, so that the second connecting rod 2003 and the second connecting cover 17 can remain in a locked state after the adjustment is completed.

[0039] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention, but not to limit the present invention.
