    Abstract The liver is a major organ responsible for maintaining the body's homeostasis and xenobiotic metabolism. Liver transplantation is essential for the alleviation of many severe liver diseases. However, there are many patients who cannot receive liver transplants because of donor shortage. Therefore development of effective therapeutic drugs that can replace the need for liver transplantation is desired. To this end, model cells that faithfully reproduce hepatic functions are essential. It is expected that human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPS)-derived hepatocyte-like cells, which faithfully reproduce hepatic functions, would be a valuable tool for drug discovery. Hepatic differentiation from human iPS cells has been performed using growth factors, but the hepatic differentiation efficiency was quite low and liver functions of human iPS cell-derived hepatocyte-like cells were lower than those of primary human hepatocytes. Therefore we tried to improve the hepatic differentiation technology using gene transfer, genome editing, three-dimensional culture, and extracellular matrix technologies. As a result, the purity of human iPS cell-derived hepatocyte-like cells was improved into 90% or more, and the liver functions of human iPS cell-derived hepatocyte-like cells were improved to a level comparable to primary human hepatocytes. In this article, we introduce the research results we have acquired over the last decade.

    Abstract To understand disease pathophysiologies, models that recapitulate human functions are necessary. In vitro models that consist of human cells are preferred to ones using animal cells, because organ functions can vary from species to species. However, conventional in vitro models do not recapitulate human organ functions well. Organ-on-a-chip technology provides a reliable in vitro model of the functional units of human organs. Organ-on-a-chip technology uses microfluidic devices and their accessories to impart organ functions to human cells. Using microfluidic devices, we can co-culture multiple cell types that compose human organs. Moreover, we can culture human cells under physiologically relevant stresses, such as mechanical and shear stresses. Current organ-on-a-chip technology can reproduce the functions of several organs including the liver. Because it is difficult to maintain the function of human hepatocytes, which are the gold standard of in vitro liver models, under conventional culture conditions, the application of liver-on-a-chips to liver disease research is expected. This review introduces the current status and future prospects of liver-on-a-chips in liver disease research.

    Abstract Infectious diseases are caused by the invasion of pathogens into a host. To explore the mechanisms of pathogen infections and cellular responses, human models that can accurately recapitulate human pathophysiology are needed. Organ-on-a-chip is a type of advanced in vitro model system that cultures cells in microfluidic devices to replicate physiologically relevant microenvironments such as 3D structures, shear stress, and mechanical stimulation. Recently, organ-on-a-chips have been widely adopted to examine the pathophysiology of infectious diseases in detail. Here, we will summarize recent advances in infectious disease research of visceral organs such as the lung, intestine, liver, and kidneys, using organ-on-a-chips.

    Abstract Hepatocyte-like cells differentiated from human pluripotent stem cells (such as human embryonic stem (ES) cells and induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells) are expected to be utilized in drug screening. However, the hepatocyte differentiation efficiency and hepatic functions of hepatocyte-like cells were not sufficient to perform ES/iPS cell-based drug discovery. Therefore, we decided to improve the method of hepatocyte differentiation from human ES/iPS cells. To enhance this hepatocyte differentiation efficiency, hepatocyte-related transcription factors, such as forkhead box protein A2 (FOXA2) and hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha (HNF1α), were overexpressed during the hepatocyte differentiation process. In addition, to enhance the functions of hepatocyte-like cells, these cells were cultured in three dimensional (3D) conditions using a Nanopillar plate. By FOXA2 and HNF1α overexpression, human ES/iPS cells could efficiently (more than 80%) differentiate into albumin-positive hepatocyte-like cells. Various hepatic functions, including albumin secretion and drug metabolism capacities, of the hepatocyte-like cells were significantly enhanced by performing 3D cell culture. These results suggest that the method of hepatocyte differentiation could be improved by using gene transfer and 3D cell culture technologies. We believe that these new hepatocyte-like cells would be useful tools in drug development.
