A Human Liver-on-a-Chip Platform for Modeling Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Soufian Lasli

The liver possesses a unique microenvironment with a complex internal vascular system and cell-cell interactions. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common form of chronic liver disease, and although much effort has been dedicated to buil ...

Beneficial effects of Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells on Porcine Hepatocyte Viability and Albumin Secretion

Sandrine Gerber, François Rémi Pierre Noverraz, Solène Marcelle Françoise Marie Passemard, Luca Szabó, Aurélien Thomas

Porcine hepatocytes transplanted during acute liver failure might support metabolic functions until the diseased liver recovers its function. Here, we isolated high numbers of viable pig hepatocytes and evaluated hepatocyte functionality after encapsulatio ...

Encapsulation of Huh-7 cells within alginate-poly(ethylene glycol) hybrid microspheres

Jutta Christine Wandrey, Redouan Mahou

Novel calcium alginate poly(ethylene glycol) hybrid microspheres (Ca-alg-PEG) were developed and evaluated as potentially suitable materials for cell microencapsulation. Grafting 5-13% of the backbone units of sodium alginate (Na-alg) with alpha-amine-omeg ...

MULTI-ANALYTE DETECTION FOR BIOLOGICAL FLUIDS Towards Continous Monitoring of Glucose, Ionized Calcium and pH using a Viscometric Affinity Biosensor

Peter Ryser, Eric Meurville, Christophe Boss, Frédéric Schmitt, Pablo Dosil Rosende

We present a viscometric affinity biosensor that can potentially allow continuous multi-analyte monitoring in biological fluids like blood or plasma. The sensing principle is based on the detection of viscosity changes of a polymeric solution which has a s ...
