| Scientists found SARS-CoV-2 virus-like particles (trVLP) suppressed cell apoptosis, but the trVLP lacking N protein did not. Further study verified that N protein repressed cell apoptosis in cultured cells, human lung organoids, and mice. [Signal Transduction And Targeted Therapy] |

| Organoids were established from head and neck cancer patient tumor tissue and characterized using immunohistochemistry and DNA sequencing. Organoids were exposed to chemo- and radiotherapy and a panel of targeted agents, and organoid response was correlated with patient clinical response. [Med] |

| In this Phase II, single-center, open-label, non-comparative study, 90 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer following progression on or after standard therapy were enrolled. Patient-derived organoids and in vitro sensitivity testing were feasible in a cohort of metastatic colorectal cancer. [Journal Of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research] |

| To develop clinically relevant models of these mutational processes investigators derived 15 continuous high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma patient-derived organoids and characterized them using bulk transcriptomic, bulk genomic, single-cell genomic, and drug sensitivity assays. [eLife] |

|
| Scientists utilized human cortical organoid technology to probe how methadone impacts the earliest mechanisms of cortico-genesis and provided novel insight into the molecular underpinnings of methadone’s putative effect on cognitive and behavioral development. [Translational Psychiatry] |

| Researchers investigated three dimension (3D) culture of human stem cell-derived islet organoids, with 3D culture initiated at the pancreatic progenitor, endocrine progenitor, or immature β-cell stage. [Biomaterials Science] |

|
| Investigators first generated human cortical organoids from a single rosette to create more homogenous organoids. They then took advantage of a 3D co-culture system to encapsulate brain organoids with a thin layer of meningeal cells from the very early stages of cortical development. [Scientific Reports] |

| Using models of patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model, patient-derived organoids, and PDX-derived organoids for salivary duct carcinoma (SDC), researchers examined the therapeutic effect of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) blockade on HER2-positive SDC.
