Abstract
Monitoring cell secretion in complex microenvironments is crucial for understanding cellular behavior and advancing physiological and pathological research. While traditional cell culture methods, including organoids and spheroids, provide valuable models, real-time monitoring of cell secretion of signaling molecules remains challenging. Integrating advanced monitoring technologies into these systems often disrupts the delicate balance of the microenvironment, making it difficult to achieve sensitivity and specificity. This review explored recent strategies for integrating the monitoring of cell secretion of signaling molecules, crucial for understanding and replicating cell microenvironments, within cell culture platforms, addressing challenges such as non-adherent cell models and the focus on single-cell methodologies. We highlight advancements in biosensors, microfluidics, and three-dimensional culture methods, and discuss their potential to enhance real-time, multiplexed cell monitoring. By examining the advantages, limitations, and future prospects of these technologies, we aim to contribute to the development of integrated systems that facilitate comprehensive cell monitoring, ultimately advancing biological research and pharmaceutical development.

Abstract
Determining the grade of glioma is a critical step in choosing patients' treatment plans in clinical practices. The pathological diagnosis of patient's glioma samples requires extensive staining and imaging procedures, which are expensive and time-consuming. Current advanced uniform-width-constriction-channel-based microfluidics have proven to be effective in distinguishing cancer cells from normal tissues, such as breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, etc. However, the uniform-width-constriction channels can result in low yields on glioma cells with irregular morphologies and high heterogeneity. In this research, we presented an innovative cyclic conical constricted (CCC) microfluidic device to better differentiate glioma cells from normal glial cells. Compared with the widely used uniform-width-constriction microchannels, the new CCC configuration forces single cells to deform gradually and obtains the biophysical attributes from each deformation. The human-derived glioma cell lines U-87 and U-251, as well as the human-derived normal glial astrocyte cell line HA-1800 were selected as the proof of concept. The results showed that CCC channels can effectively obtain the biomechanical characteristics of different 12-25 μm glial cell lines. The patient glioma samples with WHO grades II, III, and IV were tested by CCC channels and compared between Elastic Net (ENet) and Lasso analysis. The results demonstrated that CCC channels and the ENet can successfully select critical biomechanical parameters to differentiate the grades of single-glioma cells. This CCC device can be potentially further applied to the extensive family of brain tumors at the single-cell level.

Abstract
Sensitive assays of protein biomarkers play critical roles in clinical diagnostics and biomedical research. Such assays typically employ immunoreagents such as monoclonal antibodies that suffer from several drawbacks, including relatively tedious production, significant batch-to-batch variability, and challenges in site-specific, stoichiometric modification with fluorophores or other labels. One proposed alternative to such immunoreagents, nucleic acid aptamers generated by systematic evolution of ligand by exponential enrichment (SELEX), can be chemically synthesized with much greater ease, precision, and reproducibility than antibodies. However, most aptamers exhibit relatively poor affinity, yielding low sensitivity in the assays employing them. Recently, single molecule recognition through equilibrium Poisson sampling (SiMREPS) has emerged as a platform for detecting proteins and other biomarkers with high sensitivity without requiring high-affinity detection probes. In this manuscript, we demonstrate the applicability and advantages of aptamers as detection probes in SiMREPS as applied to two clinically relevant biomarkers, VEGF165 and IL-8, using a wash-free protocol with limits of detection in the low femtomolar range (3-9 fM). We show that the kinetics of existing RNA aptamers can be rationally optimized for use as SiMREPS detection probes by mutating a single nucleotide in the conserved binding region or by shortening the aptamer sequence. Finally, we demonstrate the detection of endogenous IL-8 from human serum at a concentration below the detection limit of commercial ELISAs.

Abstract
Chemokines are a class of cytokine whose special properties, together with their involvement and relevant role in various diseases, make them a restricted group of biomarkers suitable for diagnosis and monitoring. Despite their importance, biodetection techniques dedicated to the selective determination of one or more chemokines are very scarce. For some years now, the critical diagnosis of inflammatory diseases by detecting both cytokine and chemokine biomarkers, has had a strong impact on the development of multiple detection platforms. However, it would be desirable to implement methodologies with a higher degree of selectivity for chemokines, in order to provide more precise information. In addition, better development of biosensor technology applied to this specific field would make it possible to address the main challenges of detection methods for several diseases with a high incidence in the population, avoiding high costs and low sensitivity. Taking this into account, this review aims to present the state of the art of chemokine biodetection techniques and emphasize the role of these systems in the prevention, monitoring and treatment of various diseases associated with chemokines as a starting point for future developments that are also analyzed throughout the article.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Fibromyalgia (FM) is a complex chronic pain condition. Its symptoms are nonspecific, and to date, no objective test exists to confirm FM diagnosis. Potential objective measures include the circulating levels of blood biomarkers. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to review studies assessing blood biomarkers' levels in patients with FM compared with healthy controls. We systematically searched the PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PsycINFO databases. Fifty-four studies reporting the levels of biomarkers in blood in patients with FM were included. Data were extracted, and the methodological quality was assessed independently by 2 authors. The methodological quality of 9 studies (17%) was low. The results of most studies were not directly comparable given differences in methods and investigated target immune mediators. Thus, data from 40 studies only were meta-analyzed using a random-effects model. The meta-analysis showed that patients with FM had significantly lower levels of interleukin-1 β and higher levels of IL-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interferon gamma, C-reactive protein, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor compared with healthy controls. Nevertheless, this systematic literature review and meta-analysis could not support the notion that these blood biomarkers are specific biomarkers of FM. Our literature review, however, revealed that these same individual biomarkers may have the potential role of identifying underlying pathologies or other conditions that often coexist with FM. Future research is needed to evaluate the potential clinical value for these biomarkers while controlling for the various confounding variables.

Abstract
Salmonella, as a common foodborne pathogen in dairy products, poses a great threat to human health. We studied a new detection method based on quantum dots (QD). A fluorescent biosensor with multiple fluorescent signal amplification based on a streptavidin (SA) biotin system and the polyamino linear polymer poly-l-lysine (PLL) were established to detect Salmonella in milk. First, Salmonella was captured on a black 96-well plate with paired Salmonella mAb to form a double-antibody sandwich. Second, SA was immobilized on biotin-modified mAb by SA-biotin specific bond. Then, the biotin-modified polylysine (BT-PLL) was bound on SA and specifically bonded again through the SA-biotin system. Finally, water-soluble CdSe/ZnS QD-labeled SA was added to a black 96-well plate for covalent coupling with BT-PLL. The fluorescent signal was amplified in a dendritic manner by the layer-by-layer overlap of SA and biotin and the covalent coupling of biotinylated PLL. Under optimal conditions, the detection limit was 4.9 × 103 cfu/mL in PBS. The detection limit was 10 times better than that of the conventional sandwich ELISA. In addition, the proposed biosensor was well specific and could be used for detecting Salmonella in milk samples.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common systemic inflammatory autoimmune disease that severely affects the life quality of patients. Current therapeutics in clinic mainly focus on alleviating the development of RA or relieving the pain of patients. The emerging biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) require long-term treatment to achieve the expected efficacy. With the development of bionanotechnology, nucleic acids fulfill characters as therapeutics or nanocarriers and can therefore be alternatives to combat RA. This review summarizes the therapeutic RNAs developed through RNA interference (RNAi), nucleic acid aptamers, DNA nanostructures-based drug delivery systems, and nucleic acid vaccines for the applications in RA therapy and diagnosis. Furthermore, prospects of nucleic acids for RA therapy are intensively discussed as well.

Abstract
Aim: Cell-free DNA in the plasma is known to be a potential biomarker for noninvasive diagnosis of oncogenic mutations. The authors aimed to design an optimized padlock probe-based hyperbranched rolling circle amplification biosensor to detect the KRAS G12D mutation using fluorescence and colorimetric methods. Methods: Single-factor experiments, Plackett-Burman design and response surface methodology were applied to optimize the padlock probe-based hyperbranched rolling circle amplification reaction. Results: The maximum fluorescence intensity was achieved at a padlock probe concentration of 1.5 pM and target concentration of 9 pM at 38°C ligation temperature. The proposed biosensor has a low detection limit of 60 fM of target DNA and a linear response in the concentration range of 60 fM to 0.2 pM.

Abstract
An immunoassay is mostly employed for the direct detection of food contaminants, and a molecular assay for targeting nucleic acids employs amplification techniques for distinguishing genes. The integration of an immunoassay with nucleic acid amplification techniques inherits the direct and rapid performance of an immunoassay and the ultrasensitive merit of a molecular assay. Enthusiastic attention has been attracted in recent years on the utilization of isothermal amplification techniques in an immunoassay, as well as the employment of a lateral flow immunoassay in a molecular assay. Thus, this Review discussed these kinds of approaches from two categories: immuno-nucleic acid amplification (I-NAA) and nucleic acid amplification-immunoassay (NAA-I). The advantages, drawbacks, and future developments were discussed for a comprehensive understanding.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is an important leading cause of cancer-related deaths among females, and a single biomarker does not have the sensitivity and specificity required for an effective ovarian cancer screening. Herein, we investigate a high-performance microfluidic detection platform to conduct a novel panel of multiple biomarkers for the early detection of ovarian carcinoma, which include CA125, HE4, OPN, MSLN, Hsp70, CA153, AFP, IL-6, and IL-8 using a microfluidic chip. High-throughput microfluidic chips and graphene oxide-assembled substrate are used to microprint repeatable capture antibody arrays and conduct multiple biomarkers in microscale volume samples. The proposed microfluidic platform achieves an ultralow detection limit of ∼1 pg mL−1 and 0.01 U mL−1 with excellent detection selectivity and a short detection time of 30 min. The analysis of serum biomarkers in 18 ovarian cancer patients and 4 healthy persons indicates a clear subgroup sorting between the high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma, borderline, and benign tumor patients, and healthy persons. The proposed detection platform and the biomarker panel are promising to conduct an early detection of ovarian cancer. A high-performance microfluidic detection platform is developed to conduct a novel panel of multiple biomarkers for the early detection of ovarian carcinoma, which is promising for the early detection of ovarian cancer.![]()

Abstract
Nucleic acid aptamers capable of affine and specific binding to their molecular targets have now established themselves as a very promising alternative to monoclonal antibodies for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Although the main focus in aptamers’ research and development for biomedicine is made on cardiovascular, infectious, and malignant diseases, the use of aptamers as therapeutic or diagnostic tools in the context of rheumatic diseases is no less important. In this review, we consider the main features of aptamers that make them valuable molecular tools for rheumatologists, and summarize the studies on the selection and application of aptamers for protein biomarkers associated with rheumatic diseases. We discuss the progress in the development of aptamer-based diagnostic assays and targeted therapeutics for rheumatic disorders, future prospects in the field, and issues that have yet to be addressed.

Abstract
Background Angiogenesis is important for the progression of gastric cancer (GC). Y-box binding protein 1 (YB-1) predicts advanced disease and indicates neovasculature formation in GC tissues, while the related mechanisms remain elusive. Exosomes mediate intercellular communications via transferring various molecules including proteins, lipids, mRNAs, and microRNAs, while the cargos of GC exosomes and the related mechanisms in GC angiogenesis were rarely reported except for several microRNAs. Methods In this study, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were, respectively, treated by the exosomes isolated from the YB-1 transfected and the control SGC-7901 cells (SGC-7901-OE-Exo and SGC-7901-NC-Exo), and their apoptosis, proliferation, migration, invasion, and angiogenesis were, sequentially, compared. The levels of angiogenic factors including VEGF, Ang-1, MMP-9 and IL-8 in the exosome-treated HUVECs and the GC-derived exosomes were, separately, detected using PCR and Western blotting as well as RNA sequencing assays. Results We observed the consistent level of YB-1 in the exosomes and their originated GC cells, and the internalization of exosomes into HUVECs. Comparing with SGC-7901-NC-Exo, SGC-7901-OE-Exo significantly inhibited the apoptosis but promoted the proliferation, migration, invasion, and angiogenesis of HUVECs, within which the increased mRNA and protein levels of VEGF, Ang-1, MMP-9 and IL-8 were demonstrated. Meanwhile, mRNA levels of VEGF, Ang-1, MMP-9 and IL-8 showed no significant difference between SGC-7901-NC-Exo and SGC-7901-OE-Exo, although statistically higher mRNA of YB-1 was detected in the SGC-7901-OE-Exo. Conclusions Our findings illustrate YB-1 as the key component of exosome to promote GC angiogenesis by upregulating specific angiogenic factors in the exosome-treated endothelial cells but not in the exosomes themselves.

Abstract
Neutrophil chemotaxis plays a vital role in human immune system. Compared with traditional cell migration assays, the emergence of microfluidics provides a new research platform of cell chemotaxis study due to the advantages of visualization, precise control of chemical gradient, and small consumption of reagents. A series of microfluidic devices have been fabricated to study the behavior of neutrophils exposed on controlled, stable, and complex profiles of chemical concentration gradients. In addition, microfluidic technology offers a promising way to integrate the other functions, such as cell culture, separation and analysis into a single chip. Therefore, an overview of recent developments in microfluidic-based neutrophil chemotaxis studies is presented. Meanwhile, the strength and drawbacks of these devices are compared.

Abstract
A triple recognition voltammetric method for the determination of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is described. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and magnetic nanoparticles (MagNPs), sized 26 and 310 nm, respectively, were synthesized and characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), FT-IR, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and Z-potential measurements. Antibody-modified MagNPs and methylene blue-labeled aptamer (Apt-MB)-modified AuNPs were used as an identifier, a signal reporter, and an amplifier, respectively. In the presence of BNP, the magnetic gold nanocomposite is formed through cascade conjugation via specific interaction. It then hybridized with complementary DNA (cDNA) on the interface, thereby amplifying the current signal of Apt-MB and increasing the selectivity of the immunoassay. Results obtained demonstrate the development of a highly selective method with a detection limit of 0.56 pg mL-1 and a linear response over the concentration range 1-10,000 pg mL-1. The standard deviation of the method is < 6% while the recovery ranged from 92.2 to 104.2%.

Abstract
Recent studies reveal a great value of interleukin-8 (IL-8), a pro-inflammatory cytokine, as a potent biomarker for early diagnosis of oral cancer. Herein, a new electrochemical method is proposed to detect IL-8 by facilely incorporating DNA-templated quantum dots (QDs). In principle, target IL-8 is first treated with the reducing agent tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine (TCEP) to yield active thiols and then captured by antibody-functionalized magnetic beads (MBs). Thereafter, via the Michael addition reaction between the active thiol and maleimide group, a maleimide-modified DNA probe is linked to the surface of MBs, which can initiate a process of rolling circle amplification. In this way, long-range DNA strands are generated on the MB surface, subsequently recruiting DNA-templated CdTe/CdS QDs (DNA-QDs) to act as electrochemical reporters. By tracing the responses of DNA-QDs, the method allows IL-8 detection in a linear range from 5 to 5000 fg/mL with a detection limit of 3.36 fg/mL. The selectivity, reproducibility, and applicability in complex serum samples are also demonstrated to be favorable, indicating that the method may have a great potential in the future. More importantly, the use of TCEP treatment in the method not only provides a facile way to incorporate DNA-QDs, avoiding the complicated and time-consuming preparation process of antibody-DNA conjugates or functional nanomaterials; but also makes the method capable of being extended to detect other protein biomarkers in view of widespread presence of disulfides, which may hold a broad potential to facilitate efficient biosensing designs.

Abstract
A novel electrochemical DNA biosensor was developed and MON89788 of soybean transgenic gene sequence was detected based on a strategy of rolling circle amplification (RCA) and gold nanoparticle cube (AuNPC)-labeled multiple probes. First, the mercapto-modified capture DNA was immobilized on the surface of the Fe3O4@Au magnetic nanoparticles via an Au-S bond, and the capture DNA was opened and complementarily hybridized with the target DNA to form a double-stranded DNA. In the 10 × reaction buffer, Exonuclease III (ExoIII) specifically recognized and sheared the double-stranded DNA to release the target DNA, which led to the next round of reaction. Afterward, AuNP cube-loaded ssDNA (AuNPC/DNA) was added with the rolling circle reaction with the help of Phi29 DNA polymerase and T4 ligase. Finally, [Ru(NH3)6]3+ was attracted directly by the anionic phosphate of ssDNA via electrostatic interaction. The determination was carried out by using chronocoulometry (CC), and the CC signal was recorded. The mass amount of DNA strands extended infinitely on the AuNPs cube and numerous [Ru(NH3)6]3+ were absorbed, thus the detected signal was highly amplified. The corresponding CC signal showed a good linear relationship with the logarithm of the target DNA concentration in the range of 1 × 10-16 to 1 × 10-7 mol L-1, with a detection limit of 4.5 × 10-17 mol L-1. Specific gene sequence of MON89788 in soybean samples was determined, and the recoveries ranged from 97.3% to 102.0%. This sensor is one of the most sensitive sensors for genetic sequence assessment at present. Moreover, it demonstrates good selectivity, stability, and reproducibility.

IL-6 and IL-8 secreted by tumour cells impair the function of NK cells via the STAT3 pathway in oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Abstract
Background Recurrence and metastasis are the leading causes of tumour-related death in patients with oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Tumour-infiltrating natural killer cells (NK cells) display powerful cytotoxicity to tumour cells and play a pivotal role in tumour therapy. However, the phenotype and functional regulation of NK cells in oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains largely unknown. Methods Single cell suspensions from blood and tissue samples were isolated by physical dissociation and filtering through a 70 μm cell strainer. Flow cytometry was applied to profile the activity and function of NK cells, and an antibody chip experiment was used to identify and quantitate cytokine levels. We studied IL-6 and IL-8 function in primary oesophageal squamous carcinoma and NK cell co-cultures in vitro and by a xenograft tumour model in vivo. Western blotting was used to quantitate STAT3 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 3) and p-STAT3 levels. Finally, we performed an IHC array to analyse IL-6/IL-8 (interleukin 6/interleukin 8) expression in 103 pairs of tumours and matched adjacent tissues of patients with ESCC to elucidate the correlation between IL-6 or IL-8 and clinical characteristics. Results The percentages of NK cells in both peripheral blood and tumour tissues from patients with ESCC were significantly increased in comparison with those in the controls and correlated with the clinical characteristics. Furthermore, the decrease in activating receptors and increase in inhibitory receptors on the surface of tumour-infiltrating NK cells was confirmed by flow cytometry. The level of granzyme B, the effector molecule of tumour-infiltrating NK cells, was also decreased. Mechanistically, primary ESCC cells activated the STAT3 signalling pathway on NK cells through IL-6 and IL-8 secretion, leading to the downregulation of activating receptors (NKp30 and NKG2D) on the surface of NK cells. An ex vivo study showed that blockade of STAT3 attenuated the IL-6/IL-8-mediated impairment of NK cell function. Moreover, the expression of IL-6 or IL-8 in tumour tissues was validated by immunohistochemistry to be positively correlated with tumour progression and poor survival, respectively. Conclusions Tumour cell-secreted IL-6 and IL-8 impair the activity and function of NK cells via STAT3 signalling and contribute to oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma malignancy.

The Construction of Retinal Pigment Epithelium Sheets with Enhanced Characteristics and Cilium Assembly Using iPS Conditioned Medium and Small Incision Lenticule Extraction Derived Lenticules. Acta Biomater 2019; 92:115-131. [PMID: 31075513 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2019.05.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2018] [Revised: 04/18/2019] [Accepted: 05/06/2019] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
In vitro generation of a functional retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) monolayer sheet is useful and promising for RPE cell therapy. Here, for the first time, we used induced pluripotent stem (iPS) supernatant as the conditioned medium (iPS-CM) and femtosecond laser intrastromal lenticule (FLI-lenticule) as a scaffold to construct an engineered RPE sheet. There are significant enhancements in RPE cell density, transepithelial electrical resistance (TER) and inhibitions of ultraviolet C (UVC)-irradiated apoptosis when RPE cells are cultured in iPS supernatant/Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM)-F12 of 1/2 (iPS-CM) compared with those in normal medium (NM, DMEM-F12). Using the assay of a panel of cytokines, combined with transcriptome and protein analyses, we discover that iPS-CM contains high levels of platelet-derived growth factor AA (PDGF-AA), insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)-2, transforming growth factor (TGF)-α and IGFBP-6, which are responsible for the upregulation of gene and protein markers with RPE phenotypes and downregulation of gene and protein markers with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotypes for RPE cells in iPS-CM when compared to those in NM. Moreover, compared to cultures on tissue culture plates (TCP), RPE cells on FLI-lenticule display more microvilli and cilium in accordance with the results in terms of RNA-Seq data, quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) expression, immunofluorescence staining, and western blot assays. Furthermore, acellular FLI-lenticule exhibits biocompatibility after rabbit subretinal implantation by 30 days through electroretinography and histological examination. Thus, we determined that engineered RPE sheets treated by iPS-CM in conjunction with FLI-lenticule scaffold aid in enhanced RPE characteristics and cilium assembly. Such a strategy to construct RPE sheets is a promising avenue for developing RPE cell therapy, disease models and drug screening tools. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In vitro generation of a functional RPE monolayer sheet is useful and promising for RPE cell therapy. Here, we constructed engineered RPE sheets treated by iPS-CM in conjunction with FLI-lenticule scaffolds to help in enhanced RPE characteristics and cilium assembly. Such a strategy to generate RPE sheets is a promising avenue for developing RPE cell therapy, disease models and drug screening tools.

Abstract
A novel and versatile immunosensing strategy was developed for ultrasensitive and specific detection of proteins by organically integrating interfacial specific target recognition and homogeneous transcription amplification. In principle, classic antigen-antibody sandwich structure on the microplate could realize the specific identification of target protein. Biotinylated DNA probe was subsequently introduced by streptavidin-biotin system as a bridge linking interfacial and homogeneous reaction. The biotinylated DNA initiated exponential transcription amplification in the solution, which converted per target recognition event on the interface to numerous single-stranded RNA products in solution for highly sensitive fluorescence immunosensing. The proposed immunoassay based on interfacial recognition-induced homogeneous exponential transcription (IR-HET) for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) detection showed a good linear range from 0.01 to 1000 pg/mL and the limit of detection as low as 1 fg/mL, which was 3 orders lower than traditional ELISA method. The established strategy was also successfully applied to directly detect VEGF from culture supernatants of tumor cells and clinical body fluid samples, proving very high sensitivity, selectivity and low matrix effect. Therefore, IR-HET-based immunosensing strategy might become a potential powerful tool be applied in ultrasensitive detection of low abundance protein biomarker for clinical early diagnosis, treatment and prognosis.

Abstract
Sensitive and specific detection of HIV-related DNA is of great importance for early accurate diagnosis and therapy of HIV-infected patients. Here, we developed a one-step and rapid fluorescence strategy for HIV-related DNA detection based on strand displacement amplification and a Mg2+-dependent DNAzyme reaction. In the presence of target HIV DNA, it can hybridize with template DNA and activate strand displacement amplification to generate numerous DNAzyme sequences. With the introduction of Mg2+, DNAzyme can be activated to circularly cleave the substrate DNA, which leads to the separation of fluorophore reporters from the quenchers, resulting in the recovery of the fluorescence. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the established biosensing method can detect target DNA down to 61 fM with a linear range from 100 fM to 1 nM, and discriminate target DNA from mismatched DNA perfectly. In addition, the developed biosensing strategy was successfully applied to assay target DNA spiked into human serum samples. With the advantages of fast, easy operation and high-performance, this biosensing strategy might be an alternative tool for clinical diagnosis of HIV infection.

Abstract
The metastasis in which the cancer cells degrade the extracellular matrix (ECM) and invade to the surrounding and far tissues of the body is the leading cause of mortality in cancer patients. With a lot of advancement in the field, yet the biological cause of metastasis are poorly understood. The microfluidic system provides advanced technology to reconstruct a variety of in vivo-like environment for studying the interactions between tumor cells (TCs) and endothelial cells (ECs). This review gives a brief account of both two-dimensional models and three-dimensional microfluidic systems for the analysis of TCs-ECs co-culture as well as their applications to anti-cancer drug screening. Furthermore, the advanced methods for analyzing cell-to-cell interactions at single-cell level were also discussed.
