Advanced gut-on-chips for assessing carotenoid absorption, metabolism, and transport.
Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition 2023 December 15
Bioengineered strategies enable gut chips to faithfully replicate essential features of intestinal microsystems, encompassing geometric properties, peristalsis, intraluminal fluid flow, oxygen gradients, and the microbiome. This emerging technique serves as a powerful tool for nutrition studies by emulating the absorption and distribution processes in a manner highly relevant to human physiology. It offers unprecedented accessibility for investigating the mechanisms governing nutrition metabolism. While the application of gut-on-chip models in disease modeling and drug screening has been extensively explored, their potential in dietary nutrition research remains relatively unexplored. This comprehensive review provides an overview of the different approaches employed in constructing gut-on-chip platforms using diverse cell sources and niche mimics. Furthermore, it explores the applications and prospects of gut-on-chips in nutrition-related investigations, with a specific focus on carotenoid transport, absorption, and metabolism. Lastly, this review discusses the future development trajectory of this groundbreaking technology paradigm, highlighting its broad applicability in the field of food technology. By harnessing the capabilities of these state-of-the-art techniques within gut chip platforms, researchers can establish a robust scientific foundation for unraveling the intricate mechanisms that govern the behavior and functional properties of carotenoids.
