Intestinal Organoids in Colitis Research: Focusing on Variability and Cryopreservation [PDF]
In recent years, stem cell-derived organoids have become a cell culture standard that is widely used for studying various scientific issues that were previously investigated through animal experiments and using common tumor cell lines.

Summary: Colonic epithelial repair is a key determinant of health. Repair involves changes in epithelial differentiation, an extensive proliferative response, and upregulation of regeneration-associated “fetal-like” transcripts, including Ly6a (Sca-1 ...

Human Enteroids/Colonoids and Intestinal Organoids Functionally Recapitulate Normal Intestinal Physiology and Pathophysiology [PDF]
Identification of Lgr5 as the intestinal stem cell marker as well as the growth factors necessary to replicate adult intestinal stem cell division has led to the establishment of the methods to generate "indefinite" ex vivo primary intestinal epithelial cultures, termed "mini-intestines." Primary cultures developed from isolated intestinal crypts or ...

An in vitro chronic damage model impairs inflammatory and regenerative responses in human colonoid monolayers [PDF]
Acute damage to the intestinal epithelium can be repaired via de-differentiation of mature intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) to a stem-like state, but there is a lack of knowledge on how intestinal stem cells function after chronic injury, such as in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Declined numbers and weakened functions of intestinal stem cells (ISCs) impair the integrity of the intestinal epithelium during aging. However, the impact of intestinal microbiota on ISCs in this process is unclear.

Human iPSC Colonoid Function is Improved by Exposure to Fecal Fermentates
The host‐microbe interaction is critical for intestinal homeostasis. By‐products from microbial metabolism of unabsorbed dietary components have been studied increasingly as potential contributors to health and disease. In vitro fermentation systems provide a way to simulate microbial activity and by‐product production of the colon using human fecal ...

A8 REPEATED SUBMERGENCE OF AIR-LIQUID INTERFACE COLONOID CULTURES IMPAIRS INFLAMMATORY AND REGENERATIVE RESPONSES [PDF]
Abstract Background Damage in the intestinal epithelium is repaired via de-differentiation of mature intestinal epithelial cells to a stem-like state. Indeed, literature has primarily focused on acute forms of intestinal damage, but there is a lack of models to study how intestinal stem cells function

Loss of SLC26A3 Results in Colonic Mucosal Immune Dysregulation via Epithelial-Immune Cell Crosstalk
Background & Aims: Down-regulation of chloride transporter SLC26A3 or down-regulated in adenoma (DRA) in colonocytes has recently been linked to the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC).
