|
| The authors showed that human induced salivary glands generated from hiPSCs can be infected with SARS-CoV-2. [Nature Cell Biology] |

|
| Researchers established a human retinal organoid system reproducing several parameters of the human retina, including some within the macula, to model a complex combination of photoreceptor and glial pathologies. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| Investigators established intestinal organoids from tamoxifen-inducible intestinal epithelial cell-specific superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) knockout mice to explore the regulation of intestinal homeostasis. [Cell Death & Disease] |

|
|
| The authors analyzed 3D retinal organoids generated from Usher type 1B retinitis pigmentosa patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells. [Stem Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
| Researchers reprogramed mitochondria-rich human urine cells into expandable intermediate mesoderm progenitor like cells, which in turn generated nephron progenitors and formed kidney organoids in both 2D and 3D cultures. [Cell & Bioscience] |
|
|
|
| Investigators established a scaffold-free protocol to generate multicellular, beating human cardiac microtissues in vitro from hiPSCs, namely human organotypic cardiac microtissues. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| Scientists constructed a 3D testicular organoid model using primary testicular cells from adult BALB/C mice.The organoid system had a blood-testis barrier-like structure and could synthesize testosterone. [Virologica Sinica] |
|
|
|
| A pancreatic cancer organoid culture from a genetically engineered pancreatic cancer murine model was established and co-cultured with autologous peripheral blood lymphocytes to induce a tumor-specific T cell response to pancreatic cancer. [Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports] |
|
|
|
|
| Investigators summarize how such organoid models can complement classical approaches to accelerate neurological research. [Nature Reviews Neurology] |
