Outline Activities
We have developed the original techniques of organoid formation and applied these to develop the hybrid artificial liver. We established the spheroid formation using the polyurethane foam as scaffold of cell culture and developed the hybrid artificial liver support system for clinical use of acute liver failure. The system was applied to the large scaled animal and the clinical effectiveness was proved. We also established the maintenance of liver functions for several months using the hollow fiber as the scaffold and using the centrifugal-force-induced organoid formation and developed the hybrid artificial liver with lobule like structure for chronic liver failure.

2000.04Study on Development of Hybrid Artificial Liver Support System (HALSS) We have developed two types of HALSS that use hepatocyte organoid culture. One is a PUF-HALSS comprising a bioreactor using polyurethane foam (PUF). In the bioreactor hepatocytes were immobilized in the pores of PUF and formed spheroid, and maintained liver-specific functions for at least ten days in vitro. The other is a LLS-HALSS that used a bioreactor containing hollow fibers with a microregular arrangement. Hepatocytes were immobilized in the extracapillary space and formed organoids by centrifugation. LLS-HALSS achieved long term maintenance of liver-specific functions for at least two months in vitro. In animal experiments, each HALSS was effective in supporting liver function, stabilization of general conditions and recovery from liver failure state. These results indicate that these HALSS may be useful to treat liver failure patients until liver transplantation or until regeneration of the native liver.
