Bone Marrow-Chip

Bone Marrow-Chip

Understand bone marrow pathophysiology induced by drugs, radiation, or genetic mutations.

The Bone Marrow-Chip is a Guided Model that Emulate has firsthand experience developing and supporting. It can be created using a Basic Research Kit and a user’s own cell sources. For Guided Models, Emulate offers guidelines and field scientist support for building a Bone Marrow-Chip using the Human Emulation System.

Model Overview icon

Recapitulate the complexity of human bone marrow in vitro

Vascularization and media flow in Organ-Chips support the differentiation and maturation of multiple blood cell lineages over four weeks while improving CD34+ cell maintenance for more accurate recapitulation of bone marrow injury.

Benefits icon

Enhanced Cellular Differentiation

A four-week culture period supports erythroid differentiation as well as myeloid development and mobilization

 

Predict Toxic Response

The Bone Marrow-Chip recapitulates the toxic responses of human bone marrow to clinically relevant concentrations of known toxic agents

 

Model Radiation-Induced Injury

The Bone Marrow-Chip has been shown to appropriately model radiation-induced decreases in all cell types

 

Model Patient-Specific Pathophysiology

Researchers have demonstrated the ability to captured key hematological abnormalities associated with Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome

Model Overview icon

Bone Marrow-Chip diagram showing differentiation following 2-4 weeks of culture. The hematopoietic compartment contains stem and progenitor patient-derived CD34+ cells and bone marrow-derived stromal cells embedded within a fibrin gel. The vascular compartment improves bone marrow function by producing angiocrine factors, supplying nutrients, and removing waste. (Source: Nature Biomedical Engineering)

Enhanced Cellular Differentiation icon

The total number of hematopoietic cells within the Bone Marrow-Chip increased approximately 300-fold over 28 days of culture. (Source: Nature Biomedical Engineering)

Prediction of Toxic Response icon

Bone Marrow-Chips infused with 5-FU through the vascular channel for two days displayed the predicted hematotoxicity at clinically relevant low micromolar concentrations, whereas analogously treated suspension and static gel co-cultures did not. (Source: Nature Biomedical Engineering)

Radiation-Induced Injury icon

Bone Marrow-Chips exposed to gamma radiation showed moderately decreased cell numbers at 1 Gy and severe toxicity at 4 Gy, closely matching human radiation sensitivities. (Source: Nature Biomedical Engineering)

Disease Modeling icon

The Bone Marrow-Chip recapitulates hematopoietic abnormalities observed in patients with SDS, as shown by a decrease in both lineage cell numbers and impaired neutrophil maturation. (Source: Nature Biomedical Engineering)
