As a necessary pathway to man-made organs, organ-on-chips (OOC), which simulate the activities, mechanics, and physiological responses of real organs, have attracted plenty of attention over the past decade. As the maturity of three-dimensional (3D) cell-culture models and microfluidics advances, the study of OOCs has made significant progress. This review article provides a comprehensive overview and classification of OOC microfluidics. Specifically, the review focuses on OOC systems capable of being used in preclinical drug screening and development. Additionally, the review highlights the strengths and weaknesses of each OOC system toward the goal of improved drug development and screening. The various OOC systems investigated throughout the review include, blood vessel, lung, liver, and tumor systems and the potential benefits, which each provides to the growing challenge of high-throughput drug screening. Published OOC systems have been reviewed over the past decade (2007–2018) with focus given mainly to more recent advances and improvements within each organ system. Each OOC system has been reviewed on how closely and realistically it is able to mimic its physiological counterpart, the degree of information provided by the system toward the ultimate goal of drug development and screening, how easily each system would be able to transition to large scale high-throughput drug screening, and what further improvements to each system would help to improve the functionality, realistic nature of the platform, and throughput capacity. Finally, a summary is provided of where the broad field of OOCs appears to be headed in the near future along with suggestions on where future efforts should be focused for optimized performance of OOC systems in general.
