Liver is a central nexus integrating metabolic and immunologic homeostasis in the
human body, and the direct or indirect target of most molecular therapeutics. A
wide spectrum of therapeutic and technological needs drives efforts to capture
liver physiology and pathophysiology in vitro, ranging from prediction of
metabolism and toxicity of small molecule drugs, to understanding off-target
effects of proteins, nucleic acid therapies, and targeted therapeutics, to
serving as disease models for drug development. Here we provide perspective on
the evolving landscape of bioreactor-based models to meet old and new challenges
in drug discovery and development, emphasizing design challenges in maintaining
long-term liver-specific function and how emerging technologies in biomaterials
and microdevices are providing new experimental models.
