Dynamic Hydrogels with Tunable Mechanics for 3D Organoid Derivation
[Small] The authors endeavor to summarize and categorize dynamic hydrogels and reveal the effects of dynamic mechanics on organoid derivation.
Comparative Analysis of the Syncytiotrophoblast in Placenta Tissue and Trophoblast Organoids Using snRNA Sequencing
[eLife] Investigators performed single-nucleus and single-cell RNA sequencing on placental tissue and trophoblast organoids. Single-nucleus RNA-seq was essential for capturing syncytiotrophoblast populations, revealing three nuclear subtypes.
Generation of Neural Organoids and Their Application in Disease Modeling and Regenerative Medicine
[Advanced Science] Recent advancements have demonstrated the utility of neural organoids in disease modeling, offering insights into the pathophysiology of various neural disorders, as well as in the field of neural regeneration. Developmental defects in neural organoids due to the lack of microglia or vascular systems are addressed.
Porcine Nasal Organoids to Model Interactions between the Swine Nasal Microbiota and the Host
[Microbiome] Researchers developed a porcine nasal organoid system from nasal tissue of pigs as well as from cytological brushes.
Single-Cell Profiling Demonstrates the Combined Effect of Wheeze Phenotype and Infant Viral Infection on Airway Epithelial Development
[Science Advances] Researchers characterized nasal airway epithelial cell (NAEC) developmental phenotypes from children aged 2 to 3 years in an a priori designed nested birth cohort from four mutually exclusive groups of wheezers/nonwheezers and respiratory syncytial virus–infected/uninfected in the first year of life.
Mucinous Breast Cancer Organoids: An In Vitro Research Model
[Discover Oncology] Scientists obtained surgical tumor samples from a 64-year-old Chinese female patient diagnosed with pure mucinous breast cancer to establish patient-derived organoids.
Latest Advanced Techniques for Improving Intestinal Organoids Limitations
[Stem Cell Reviews and Reports] Investigators elucidate the principal limitations of intestinal organoids and investigate structural defects.
TGF-β Signaling Redirects Sox11 Gene Regulatory Activity to Promote Partial EMT and Collective Invasion of Oncogenically Transformed Intestinal Organoids
[Oncogenesis] Researchers used intestinal organoids with colorectal cancer driver mutations as model system to investigate the mechanistic basis of TGF-β1-induced partial epithelial-mesenchymal transitions and collective invasion.
Bat Organoids Reveal Antiviral Responses at Epithelial Surfaces
[Nature Immunology] The authors developed respiratory and intestinal organoids that recapitulate the cellular diversity of the in vivo epithelium present in Rousettus aegyptiacus, the natural reservoir for the highly pathogenic Marburg virus.
Establishment of Salivary Tissue-Organoid Biorepository: Characterizing Salivary Gland Stem/Progenitor Cells and Novel Differentiation Marker PSMA/FOLH1
[npj Regenerative Medicine] The authors established the first diverse and clinically annotated salivary regenerative biobank at Mayo Clinic to study salivary gland stem/progenitor cells.
Microfluidic Bioprinting As a Tool to Produce hiPSCs-Derived Renal Organoids
[Biofabrication] Investigators established differentiation protocols to obtain hiPSC-derived metanephric mesenchyme, ureteric bud progenitors, and the com-bination of these was used to form organoids.
Enhanced Application Potential of Alveolar Organoids through Epithelial and Niche Cell Interactions
[Scientific Reports] Scientists developed alveolar organoids to investigate the complex interactions between alveolar epithelial cells, niche fibroblasts and macrophages, which are essential for lung development, maintenance and repair, especially under physiological injury.
Organoids are three-dimensional cell cultures that more accurately model cell behavior, organ function, and pathology than traditional two-dimensional cell culture. Organoid News was launched in 2020 to help scientists stay up-to-date with this revolutionary new research system.
