In Vitro Modeling of Interorgan Crosstalk: Multi-Organ-on-a-Chip for Studying Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic Syndrome

Cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome is a progressive disorder driven by perturbed interorgan crosstalk among adipose, liver, kidney, and heart, leading to multiorgan dysfunction. Capturing the complexity of human cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome pathophysiology using conventional models has been challenging. Multi-organ-on-a-chip platforms offer a versatile means to study underlying interorgan signaling at different stages of cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome and bolster clinical translation.
