The present disclosure provides a basal ganglia-on-a-chip for screening therapeutic agents for brain and nervous system diseases and a method for fabricating the same. The present invention provides a method for screening therapeutic agents for dopamine-dependent brain and nervous system diseases by using a basal ganglia-on-a-chip. When the basal ganglia-on-a-chip of the present invention is used in the effect evaluation of therapeutic agents for brain and nervous system diseases, the effect evaluation of therapeutic candidate substances can be economically and promptly carried out compared with an existing technique.

Basal ganglia-on-chip for screening therapeutic agents for brain and nervous system diseases

A method for measuring cell cycles includes immobilizing a capture specifically binding to a cell membrane protein to a substrate, wherein the cell membrane protein is a counterpartner binding to the capture, binding a cell having the cell membrane protein as the counterpartner to the capture, and measuring a redox potential of the cell. A method for screening a substance affecting cell cycles includes immobilizing a capture specifically binding to a cell membrane protein to a substrate; wherein the cell membrane protein is a counterpartner binding to the capture, binding a cell having the cell membrane protein as the counterpartner to the capture, treating a test substance of interest for analysis to a cell, and measuring a redox potential of the cell.

The present invention relates to a biomolecule-based electronic device in which the biomolecule with redox potential is directly immobilized on the substrate. The present invention enables to excellently exhibit the capability of a protein-based bio-memory device in which it is preferable to use the substrate on which cysteine-introduced recombinant proteins are effectively immobilized and a self-assembled layer (SAM) is fabricated. It becomes realized that a redox potential is regulated using intrinsic redox potential of the protein dependent on applied voltage. The present invention provides a novel operating method in which three potentials are applied throughout four steps. The present invention has some advantages of fabricating a protein layer in a convenient manner and inducing electron transfer by fundamental electrochemical or electronic operation. The method of this invention is considered as a new concept in the senses that intrinsic electron transfer mechanisms induced by natural-occurring biomolecules are used to develop an information storage device.
