Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of microphysiological systems, in particular to a human microphysiological system that simulates a three-dimensional anatomical structure. Background Art

[0002] Microphysiological systems with multiple "organs", also known as human chips, provide powerful tools for drug discovery. This technology is able to predict the effects of candidate drugs on the entire human body, not just on a single organ or tissue. In order to accurately replicate the human body, human chips require cells or tissues from the human body. Progress in this area has been rapid, and on April 20, 2023, the China National Medical Products Administration's Drug Review Center approved a cell therapy using NK cells derived from iPSCs, which was an important milestone. However, achieving a comprehensive simulation of the human body through human chips requires more than just the use of human cells or tissues. The three-dimensional nature of the human body and its complex anatomical structure also need to be considered in the design and manufacture of human chips, because it fundamentally determines the communication between organs and organ function.

[0003] For example, the liver's location in the upper abdomen was not chosen randomly but was determined by a variety of factors, including size, function, and complex interactions with neighboring organs. This location facilitates efficient blood processing and filtration as the liver receives nutrient-rich blood from the digestive system via the hepatic portal vein. The liver performs important tasks such as metabolism, detoxification, nutrient storage, and bile production. Its proximity to important structures such as the gallbladder and pancreas further supports digestion and nutrient absorption. The liver is connected to other organs through a complex network of blood vessels, bile ducts, and nerves, enabling seamless communication and coordination with neighboring physiological entities.

[0004] Likewise, the kidney emphasizes the importance of its unique location within the retroperitoneal space in the posterior lumbar region. This deliberate, rather than arbitrarily chosen, positioning is fundamental to its critical role in waste filtration, regulation of water and electrolyte balance, and urine production. Its proximity to major blood vessels, such as the renal artery and vein, optimizes the filtering of blood by the kidneys. In addition, their proximity to the bladder provides a relatively short passage for urine to pass through the ureters.

[0005] The traditional in vitro model for simulating the human body is the human chip. However, the current human chips are still two-dimensional and fail to take into account the three-dimensional anatomical structure of the human body, which is the key to shaping the interaction and function of organs. The two-dimensional human chip ignores the impact caused by the fixed three-dimensional position of each organ in the human body, making it difficult to faithfully simulate the complexity and overall function of the human body.
