Abstract Human organs‐on‐chips (organ chips) are small microfluidic devices that allow human cells to perform complex organ‐level functions in vitro by recreating multi‐cellular and multi‐tissue structures and applying in vivo‐like biomechanical cues. Human Organ Chips are being used for drug discovery and toxicology testing as an alternative to animal models which are ethically challenging and often do not predict clinical efficacy or toxicity. In this mini‐review, we summarize our presentation that reviewed the state of the art relating to these microfluidic culture devices designed to mimic specific human organ structures and functions, and the application of Organ Chips to regenerative pharmacology. |
