What are biological microprocessor applications? Part 2

Control of biological systems Biological microprocessors can potentially be used to control development, cell differentiation and re-programming, as all these processes depend on gene regulatory networks. Another application area is tissue engineering and tissue regeneration. Metabolic engineering has the potential to produce from simple, inexpensive starting materials a large number of chemicals that are currently derived from nonrenewable resources or limited natural resources. The metabolic flux can potentially be controlled by a biological microprocessor. Interesting might also be to control the immune system by a biological microprocessor, e.g. in transplantation medicine. An important application area is the control of malign growth. Some interesting experiments with logic based biological devices have been executed to detect cancer cells (e.g. small-cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, HeLa cells), and to induce selective apoptosis of these cells. Furthermore, biological microprocessors can be used to engineer context-dependent programmable drugs. A biological microprocessor with a context-sensing mechanism, which can simultaneously sense different types of molecules, has been engineered. In the future it might be used to detect a broad range of molecular disease symptoms, and react with the release of a drug molecule suitable for the treatment of the specific condition. In line with this concept a programmable NOR-based device has been developed capable of differentiating between prokaryotic cell strains based on their unique expression profile.
