Characterization of an engineered live bacterial therapeutic for the treatment of phenylketonuria in a human gut-on-a-chip

Engineered live bacteria could represent a new class of therapeutic treatment for human disease.

Sumario:Engineered live bacteria could represent a new class of therapeutic treatment for human disease. Here, the authors use a human gut-on-a-chip microfluidics system to characterize an engineered live bacterial therapeutic, designed for the treatment of phenylketonuria, and to construct mathematical models that predict therapeutic strain function in non-human primates.
