Recently, the team of Qin Jianhua, a researcher at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, was invited to publish a review article, systematically summarizing a series of results of the team's research on infectious diseases using organ chips, and looking forward to the future development of the field
Infectious diseases mostly refer to body diseases caused by common pathogens such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites, which can cause systemic pathological symptoms in the human body, and severe cases can lead to high morbidity and mortality
Organ chip is a cutting-edge cross-science technology developed in recent years.
This review first summarizes the latest progress of organ chip application in pathogen infection research, and shows readers the characteristics and technical advantages of using this technology to carry out pathogen-host interaction research through some representative examples
In addition, Qin Jianhua's team also tried to use organ chips to study common infectious diseases caused by bacteria
