| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Animal experiments have been used for drug screening and toxicity test. In this research, I conducted a fundamental study to develop microchip-base organ models (Organ-on-a-Chip) using cultured human cells as novel analysis tools alternative to test animals. Especially, Kidney-on-a-Chip and angiogenesis models with adipose or tumor tissue were investigated. As a result, I developed a Kidney-on-a-Chip, which was applied to excretion test, and 3D microtissues having capillary network.
