… organ-on-chip model for vascular calcification Introduction and project description: Vascular calcification, i.e. extraosseous mineral deposition in blood vessels, is a well-established marker of subclinical atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis and, when occurring in coronary arteries, an independent predictor of future coronary heart disease. Although numerous studies have explored the associations between vascular calcification and various biochemical factors, a unifying mechanism that explains … factors, which appears to vary from patient to patient, adds to the complexity of vascular disease. Clinical methods, often based on invasive angiography or non-invasive imaging techniques, are widely used for diagnosis of the vascular calcification. They, however, provide limited information for studying the underlying mechanisms, early-stage diagnosis, i.e., prior to (extensive) mineral formation, and drug development and screening. Current preclinical models for vascular calcification are also … Animal-based in vivo models, on the other hand, fall short in providing clinically translatable outcome. Hence, there is still a large unmet demand for reliable and predictive human in vitro models for pathological calcification of blood vessels, with non-invasive character and patient-specificity. Recent advances in microfluidic and organ-on-chip technologies have resulted in the development of more complex human-based in vitro models for pathological conditions of blood vessels including …
