Abstract: A method for constructing a microfluidic bone organoid-on-chip can continuously observe the impacts of different external factors on a bone tissue structure based on the “ternary regulation theory” of bone angiogenesis-bone resorption-osteogenesis coupling. The method includes: (1) building a visual three-dimensional cell cultivation platform to continuously observe impacts of different external factors on a ternary regulation theory based on angiogenesis of osteoclast precursors, osteoblasts and osteoclasts, such that a user is allowed to directly observe interactions among various kinds of cells; (2) designing microfluidic channels in a chip to allow a reagent involved to present a concentration gradient distribution in the chip; and (3) adding three bioinks including osteoblasts, osteoclasts and vascular endothelial cells respectively, so as to reflect the three cell components individually, in pairs, and as a whole in the chip.
