Abstract

High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) needs new technologies for improving cancer diagnosis and therapy. It is a fatal disease with few options for the patients. In this context, dynamic culture systems coupling with patient-derived cancer 3D microstructures could offer a new opportunity for exploring novel therapeutic approaches. In this study, we optimized a passive microfluidic platform with 3D cancer organoids, which allows a standardized approach among different patients, a minimum requirement of samples, multiple interrogations of biological events, and a rapid response. The passive flow was optimized to improve the growth of cancer organoids, avoiding the disruption of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Under optimized conditions of the OrganoFlow (tilting angle of 15° and an interval of rocking every 8 min), the cancer organoids grow faster than when they are in static conditions and the number of dead cells is reduced over time. To calculate the values of standard chemotherapeutic drugs (carboplatin, paclitaxel, and doxorubicin) and targeted drugs (ATRA), different approaches were utilized. Resazurin staining, ATP-based assay, and DAPI/PI colocalization assays were compared, and the values were calculated. The results showed that in the passive flow, the values are lower than in static conditions. FITC-labeled paclitaxel shows a better penetration of ECM under passive flow than in static conditions, and cancer organoids start to die after 48 h instead of 96 h, respectively. Cancer organoids are the last frontiers for testing of drugs that replicate the response of patients in the clinic. For this study, organoids derived from ascites or tissues of patients with Ovarian Cancer have been used. In conclusion, it was possible to develop a protocol for organoid cultures in a passive microfluidic platform with a higher growth rate, faster drug response, and better penetration of drugs into ECM, maintaining the samples' vitals and collecting the data on the same plate for up to 16 drugs.

摘要

高级别浆液性卵巢癌(HGSOC)需要新技术来改善癌症诊断和治疗。它是一种致命疾病,患者的治疗选择有限。在此背景下,与患者来源的癌症三维微结构相结合的动态培养系统可为探索新的治疗方法提供新机会。在本研究中,我们优化了一个带有三维癌症类器官的被动微流控平台,该平台允许在不同患者之间采用标准化方法,对样本的需求量最小,可对生物事件进行多次检测,并能快速响应。对被动流进行了优化以促进癌症类器官的生长,避免细胞外基质(ECM)受到破坏。在OrganoFlow的优化条件下(倾斜角度为15°,每8分钟摆动一次),癌症类器官的生长速度比在静态条件下更快,并且随着时间的推移死细胞数量减少。为了计算标准化疗药物(卡铂、紫杉醇和阿霉素)和靶向药物(全反式维甲酸)的值,采用了不同的方法。比较了刃天青染色、基于ATP的检测和DAPI/PI共定位检测,并计算了值。结果表明,在被动流中,值低于静态条件下的值。荧光素异硫氰酸酯(FITC)标记的紫杉醇在被动流下比在静态条件下对ECM具有更好的穿透性,并且癌症类器官分别在48小时而不是96小时后开始死亡。癌症类器官是测试能在临床上复制患者反应的药物的最后前沿阵地。在本研究中,使用了源自卵巢癌患者腹水或组织的类器官。总之,有可能在被动微流控平台上开发一种类器官培养方案,该方案具有更高的生长速率、更快的药物反应以及药物对ECM更好的穿透性,能够维持样本的活性,并在同一平板上收集多达16种药物的数据。
