血管细胞生物学是一个具有重大生物医学意义的研究领域。血管功能障碍与动脉粥样硬化、糖尿病和癌症等重大疾病有关。然而,当在实验室中研究血管细胞生物学时,很难模拟体内发现的动态三维微环境。微流体技术为克服这一困难提供了独特的可能性。本文综述了近年来微流控技术在血管生物学研究中的应用。将提供微流体如何用于产生剪切应力、生长因子梯度、共培养和迁移测定的实例。将讨论微流体装置在研究血管组织的三维模型中的使用。它的结论是,微流控技术提供了很大的可能性,系统地研究血管细胞生物学的设置,更密切地模仿体内的情况比那些与传统方法产生的。
Vascular cell biology is an area of research with great biomedical relevance. Vascular dysfunction is involved in major diseases such as atherosclerosis, diabetes, and cancer. However, when studying vascular cell biology in the laboratory, it is difficult to mimic the dynamic, three-dimensional microenvironment that is found in vivo. Microfluidic technology offers unique possibilities to overcome this difficulty. In this review, an overview of the recent applications of microfluidic technology in the field of vascular biological research will be given. Examples of how microfluidics can be used to generate shear stresses, growth factor gradients, cocultures, and migration assays will be provided. The use of microfluidic devices in studying three-dimensional models of vascular tissue will be discussed. It is concluded that microfluidic technology offers great possibilities to systematically study vascular cell biology with setups that more closely mimic the in vivo situation than those that are generated with conventional methods.
