The maintenance of body homeostasis relies heavily on physiological barriers. Dysfunction
of these barriers can lead to various pathological processes, including increased exposure …

The outer blood-retina barrier (oBRB), crucial for the survival and the proper functioning of
the overlying retinal layers, is disrupted in numerous diseases affecting the retina, leading to …

Organs-on-a-chip have emerged as next-generation tissue engineered models to accurately
capture realistic human tissue behaviour, thereby addressing many of the challenges …
