A Refined Culture System for Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Intestinal Epithelial Organoids

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: Gut epithelial organoids are routinely used to investigate intestinal biology; however, current culture methods are not amenable to genetic manipulation, and it is difficult to generate sufficient numbers for high-throughput studies.

Buckling without bending: a new paradigm in morphogenesis

open access: yes, 2018
A curious feature of organ and organoid morphogenesis is that in certain cases, spatial oscillations in the thickness of the growing "film" are out-of-phase with the deformation of the slower-growing "substrate," while in other cases, the oscillations ...

Unraveling Heterogeneity in Epithelial Cell Fates of the Mammary Gland and Breast Cancer. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Fluidity in cell fate or heterogeneity in cell identity is an interesting cell biological phenomenon, which at the same time poses a significant obstacle for cancer therapy.

Cancer Cells Traverse Faster in Confined Space by Modifying Vimentin filaments With Nuclear Deformation and Promoting the Growth of Desired Tumor Spheroids

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates how the Vimentin intermediate (VIM) filaments distribution/density regulates the attainment of different migration modes through cytoskeleton rearrangement and controls the nuclear morphology in migrating cells under physical confinement, which facilitates the faster traversing of those cells and the growth of post‐migration ...

DNA Methylation and Transcription Patterns in Intestinal Epithelial Cells From Pediatric Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Diseases Differentiate Disease Subtypes and Associate With Outcome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND & AIMS: We analyzed DNA methylation patterns and transcriptomes of primary intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) of children newly diagnosed with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) to learn more about pathogenesis.

Development of Artificial Sebaceous Gland‐Integrated In Vitro Human Skin Model

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Uniform 3D artificial sebaceous gland spheroids, termed SebaSpheres, are generated at high throughput using a microfluidic platform and structurally integrated into a collagen‐based skin construct containing fibroblasts and keratinocytes. This work presents a modular and scalable fabrication and integration strategy for incorporating sebaceous gland ...

Concise Review: The Potential Use of Intestinal Stem Cells to Treat Patients With Intestinal Failure. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
: Intestinal failure is a rare life-threatening condition that results in the inability to maintain normal growth and hydration status by enteral nutrition alone.

Multiplexed Luminal Tissue Constructs with Reconfigurable Barriers for Dynamic Modeling of Multi‐Tissue Interactions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study describes the fabrication of arrays of luminal tissue constructs for 3D luminal tissue modeling. An oil or media‐filled reservoir between constructs serves as a liquid barrier or bridge to regulate communication between lumens within the array for modeling multi‐tissue interactions in vitro. Abstract Cell‐lined luminal structures are crucial

Isolation and Co-culture of Paneth Cells and Intestinal Stem Cells

open access: yesBio-Protocol
Crypts at the base of intestinal villi contain intestinal stem cells (ISCs) and Paneth cells, the latter of which work as niche cells for ISCs. When isolated and cultured in the presence of specific growth factors, crypts give rise to self-renewing 3D ...

Genome Toxicity and Impaired Stem Cell Function after Conditional Activation of CreERT2 in the Intestine

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: With the tamoxifen-inducible CreERT2 system, genetic recombination can be temporally controlled in a cell-type-specific manner in intact animals, permitting dissection of the molecular underpinnings of mammalian physiology.
