| Inhibition of an epidermal growth factor receptor/Erb-B2 receptor (EGFR/ERBB2)-signaling network in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma organoid-derived cultures and mouse models differentially impacted distinct cancer-associated fibroblasts subtypes. [Cancer Cell] |

|
| Investigators showed that patient-derived intestinal organoids and tumouroids supplemented with immune cells could be used to study the on-target off-tumour toxicities of T cell-engaging bispecific antibodies (TCBs). [Nature Biomedical Engineering] |
|
|
|
| Single-cell analysis revealed that a myriad of metabolic changes occurred during cystogenesis, including defective autophagy. Experimental activation of autophagy via ATG5 overexpression or primary cilia ablation significantly inhibited cystogenesis in olycystic kidney disease kidney organoids. [Cell Stem Cell] |
|
|
|
| Scientists reported a human organoid model capable of developing the complex cellular diversity of the fetal cerebellum, including a human-specific rhombic lip progenitor population that have never been generated in vitro prior to this study. [Cell Stem Cell] |
|
|
|
| Researchers presented a human apical-out airway organoid using a biochemically defined hybrid hydrogel system. During human nasal epithelial progenitor cell differentiation, the gel gradually degraded, leading to the organoid apical surfaces facing outward. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| The authors reported Cellos, an accurate, high-throughput pipeline for 3D organoid segmentation using classical algorithms and nuclear segmentation using a trained Stardist-3D convolutional neural network. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| Researchers adapted the skin organoid model, inducing the dermal mesenchyme to transform into mammary-specific mesenchyme via the sequential activation of Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 and Parathyroid Hormone-related Protein and inhibition of hedgehog signaling. [Developmental Cell] |
|
|
|
| Investigators describe a large-scale method for producing homogeneous hiPSC-derived cardiac spheroids and cardiac organoids without scaffolds using a porous 3D microwell substratum with a suction system. [Cell Reports Methods] |
|
|
|
| The authors generated isogenic iPSCs carrying the hotspot OPA1 c.2708_2711delTTAG mutation and found that the mutant variant caused defective initial and terminal differentiation and abnormal electrophysiological properties of organoid-derived retinal ganglion cells. [Stem Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
|
| Scientists discuss a set of six complementary hallmarks in the context of some of the best-understood adult stem cell niches. [Cell Stem Cell] |

|
| Dozens of science and technology development payloads returned to Earth from the ISS as SpaceX’s 29th Commercial Resupply Services mission, contracted by NASA, successfully concluded. [ISS National Lab] |
