This is a novel approach to developing human cardiac tissues that exhibit adult-like heart #muscle characteristics. By subjecting these #tissues to increasing physical conditioning, the team achieved a level of maturation previously unattainable. This breakthrough has profound implications for studying heart diseases, drug testing, and potential therapeutic applications. The research was particularly interesting for Bi/ond to find about, as our muscle platform including pillars and electrical stimulation, aligns perfectly with the methodologies discussed in this paper.

Nauwkeurige ziektemodellen en beter geneeskunde door de menselijke fysiologie en pathologie in een 3D-model
Over ons
Realiseer nauwkeurige ziektemodellen en meer gepersonaliseerde geneeskunde door de menselijke fysiologie en pathologie na te bootsen in een 3D-model. De aanpasbare Organ-on-Chips (OOC's) van Bi/ond zijn gebouwd om beter te presteren dan de beperkingen van standaard in vitro-testen. In de vroege fase van het testen van medicijnen kunnen petrischalen en dieren niet voorspellen wat er in het menselijk lichaam gebeurt. Bi/ond is waar biologie en techniek samenkomen: onze nauwe werkrelatie met biologen hielp ons beseffen welke ondersteunende rol techniek kan spelen bij het genereren van reproduceerbare en nauwkeurige biologische modellen. We ontwikkelen een laboratoriumtechnologie voor dynamische celcultuuromgevingen die nauwkeurigere medicijntests en simulaties van elk weefseltype mogelijk maken. We bieden organisaties ook valide alternatieven voor het gebruik van dieren bij testen (3R's - replacement, reduction, refinement).

Do you spot some unknown faces in the picture below?? 👀 Raffaella Quarta and Giulia Gentili have been collaborating with our team since June developing models for skeletal muscle disease. Raffaella comes from Università degli Studi di Bari and she joins our team for the second time. Right now, she is focused on developing a 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝟯𝗗 𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝘂𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗻𝗲 𝗠𝘂𝘀𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗗𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗵𝘆, as her research group is interested in studying how different DMD mutations affect muscle physiology. Giulia, on the other hand, comes from Università degli Studi di Perugia, where she collaborates with Prof. Guglielmo Sorci on the Cellular and Molecular Biology Myolab. Her research at Bi/ond focuses on the role of the 𝗥𝗔𝗚𝗘 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿-𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘅𝗶𝗮 (you can read more about their objectives here: https://lnkd.in/e5XEsban Rafaella will continue working alongside the Bi/ond team until November, but we will be saying goodbye to Giulia in a few days.

You may remember that we announced earlier on about our participation in the MAGIC Horizon project (Next-generation Models And Genetic therapIes for rare neuromusCular diseases) (*see below) Today, we wanted to give an quick update on it, as we continue to work towards accelerating the development of gene therapies and genome editing strategies for muscular dystrophies. Our participation in the MAGIC project is centered on 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 (see graphic under this text). We are working on multiple initiatives, including bioengineering advanced human quasi-vivo models of neuromuscular diseases, testing vectors and gene editing strategies in these models, and optimizing our devices for large-scale fabrication. Currently, the team at Bi/ond is keeping very busy with the development of 𝗗𝗠𝗗 (𝗗𝘂𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗻𝗲 𝗠𝘂𝘀𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗗𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗵𝘆) 𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗢𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗻-𝗼𝗻-𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗽, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗨𝗦𝗯𝗶𝘁™, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗮𝘆𝘀.

It is that time of the year... summer! Everyone is looking forward to some time to unwind and leave the routine behind. What are you doing this summer? Are you climbing mountains or taking some time to wonder an unknown city? Wherever you go, the team at Bi/ond wants to wish you a pleasant time recharging batteries for the next chapter! While the summer is here, we are not fully disconnecting - some team members already enjoyed their time off and some are slowly going now - but we will for sure be busy, with lots of projects in the horizon: customer trainings, lab experiments, new collaborations, and continuous product ideas to develop. Enjoy! #gobiond #summervacay #beachormountain #enjoythesummer

As you probably know we are involved in research studies about #Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (#DMD) using our organ on chip technology. We have successfully created #3Dmodels that mimic muscle status and reactions to drugs and stimulation. In what other clinical setting would you use our functional muscle (or which one are you already busy with)? Please add in the comments if your answer is not available to vote on - unfortunately, there are only 4 options possible to poll on. And if you are interested in what we have done for DMD, please check here https://lnkd.in/eqBVWJuq or get in contact with our team: https://lnkd.in/g3pKFHm

Bi/ond - together with the Dompé foundation - was proud to support Davide Carta’s research on the retinal vascularization on-chip model and his participation in EUROoCs24. The event allowed us to share our progress and gather valuable feedback and advice for further refining the model. We look forward to more opportunities like this where we directly, or through our collaborators, can showcase the advancements of the model. If you have any questions about Davide's research, please reach out to him or to us directly : https://lnkd.in/g3pKFHm. We will be happy to coordinate the discussion.
Two weeks ago, the EUROoCs24 meeting took place. I expected to find experts in Organ-on-Chip models and researchers pushing the boundaries of non-animal models for drug testing, and I wasn't disappointed. The event spanned three days of talks and poster presentations from both peers and distinguished scientists, and I was thrilled to add my small contribution. A particular highlight for me was the keynote from Professor Dan Dongeun Huh and BIOLines, showcasing an eclectic portfolio of models and approaches. What I didn't expect was the significant emphasis on standardization and reproducibility, along with the shared commitment towards bridging the gap between research and pre-clinical testing, making NAMs (New Approach Methodologies) accessible not in the future, but today. #EUROoCS24 #OoC
