Human organ-on-a-chip systems for drug screening have evolved as feasible
alternatives to animal models, which are unreliable, expensive, and at times
erroneous. While chips featuring single organs can be of great use for both
pharmaceutical testing and basic organ-level studies, the huge potential of the
organ-on-a-chip technology is revealed by connecting multiple organs on one chip
to create a single integrated system for sophisticated fundamental biological
studies and devising therapies for disease. Furthermore, since most
organ-on-a-chip systems require special protocols with organ-specific media for
the differentiation and maturation of the tissues, multi-organ systems will need
to be temporally customizable and flexible in terms of the time point of
connection of the individual organ units. We present a customizable LegoŽ-like
plug & play system, ?Organo, which enables initial individual culture of single
organ-on-a-chip systems and subsequent connection to create integrated
multi-organ microphysiological systems. As a proof of concept, the ?Organo system
was used to connect multiple heart chips in series with excellent cell viability
and spontaneously physiological beat rates.
