?SynRAM 3D炎癥模型芯片流體剪切分析芯片SynVivo的SynRAM™3D炎癥模型芯片系統

可以在現實和動態的環境中研究整個炎癥途徑。通過用內皮細胞管腔重建共培養的組織和/或腫瘤細胞的組織切片，SynVivo平臺可在平臺上提供包括流動和剪切在內的生理逼真的模型，并能夠實時跟蹤滾動，粘附和遷移過程。該模型已經成功地針對體內研究進行了驗證，該研究顯示出與滾動速度，粘附模式和遷移過程具有*的相關性（Lamberti等，2014； Soroush等，2016）。

逼真模擬人體內的血管血流ding尖的微流控技術，用于細胞培養和觀察細胞滾動、粘附、遷移的得力助手，可用于觀察細胞與細胞、細胞與配體之間的在流體狀態下互相作用的新型體外流體動力學平臺?

SynRAM能夠在一個實驗中實時評估細胞相互作用，包括多個細胞層的滾動，粘附和遷移，并代表與體內結果密切相關的數據?

SynRAM 3D炎癥模型提供了一個現實的測試環境，其中包括：

微血管環境中的生理切應力
具有*封閉腔的體內類血管形態
細胞間相互作用的共培養能力
單個實驗的實時定量滾動，粘附和遷移數據

SynRAM能夠在一個實驗中實時評估細胞相互作用，包括通過多個細胞層的滾動，粘附和遷移，并代表與體內結果密切相關的數據。

SynRAM的創新設計克服了流動室或基于Transwell室的測定法固有的當前局限性。當前的流動室設計過于簡單，缺乏微環境的規模和幾何形狀，無法模擬遷移。同樣，Transwell腔室無法解決體內觀察到的流體剪切力和尺寸/拓撲結構，遷移的終點測量結果不可重現，并且無法提供實時可視化效果。

SynVivo的專有芯片設計范圍從復雜的體內衍生微血管網絡（從數字化圖像獲得）到產生逼真的細胞組成和血管形態，從而導致剪切和流動條件變化，再到簡化的理想化網絡，旨在再現細胞組成以及恒定的剪切和流動條件。

SynRAM successfully validated against in vivo data

SynRAM microfluidic chips comprising of realistic microvascular networks were used to understand the role of classical inhibitors of individual steps of the leukocyte adhesion cascade. Experimental results matched very well with in vivo data highlighting the unique ability of the platform for real-time analysis of these dynamic events in a morphologically realistic environment (Lamberti et al 2014).

Neutrophil rolling using SynRAM microfluidic chips is similar to leukocyte rolling in vivo; Box and whisker plots summarizes the comparison of leukocytes rolling velocity measured in vivo and in SynRAM chips and shows no significant difference (p=0.758; Mann-Whitney Rank Sum Test). The “+” marked in the box indicates the mean.

Neutrophil adhesion in SynRAM microfluidic chips is similar to leukocyte adhesion in vivo; Distribution of the number of adhered leukocytes and neutrophils as a function of distance from the nearest bifurcation in vivo in mouse cremaster muscle model and in vitro in microfluidic chips, respectively. Both histograms are skewed to the left indicating that leukocytes and neutrophils preferentially adhere near bifurcations with the peak occurring at one vessel or channel diameter from the nearest bifurcation.

Investigation of the Effect of Blocking of Specific Steps of the Inflammation Pathway using Monoclonal Antibodies

Antibody blocking of specific steps in the adhesion/migration cascade downregulates other steps of the cascade; Monoclonal antibodies against E-selectin (aE-selectin), ICAM-1(aICAM-1), and PI3K (wortmannin) significantly reduced the number of rolling, adhering, and migrating neutrophils in SynRAM microfluidic devices.

Percent activity after treating cells with the respective antibody blockers in comparison to their corresponding control values.

Elucidation of the Mechanism of Protein Kinase C delta (PKCδ) in Sepsis Related Inflammation Response

The SynRAM model was used to identify the underlying mechanism of Protein Kinase C delta (PKCδ) dependent neutrophil-endothelium interactions which has been found to play a significant role in the inflammatory response.  Under physiological fluid flow conditions and using the simultaneous real-time monitoring ability of the entire inflammation process comprising of rolling, adhesion and migration, they found PKC?? was a critical regulator of human neutrophil adhesion and migration through human endothelial cells during inflammation.

PKCδ-TAT inhibitor significantly reduces migration of neutrophils from the vascular channels, across the inflammed endothelium (treated with TNF-α for 4 or 24 hour), into the tissue compartment in response to fMLP mediated signaling compared to untreated controls.

Immunohistochemical detection of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in representative lung tissue sections from 24 h post surgery.  Few MPO-positive cells in Sham surgery. Sepsis induces the infiltration of numerous MPO-positive cells throughout the lung parenchyma. PKCδ-TAT Inhibitor significantly reduces sepsis-induced, MPO-positive cell numbers in the lung indicating decreased neutrophil migration.
