Advanced In Vitro Platforms for Experimental Liver Research: From Organoids and Liver‐on‐Chip to Omics and Artificial Intelligence

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hepatocytes perform essential physiological functions in the human body. Gaining more profound insight into the liver structure, diseases, and physiology by using in vitro models can help to propose more relevant clinical applications. Conventional in vitro liver models, such as two‐dimensional (2D) cell cultures, fail to adequately replicate ...
