The organoid-initiating cells in mouse pancreas and liver are phenotypically and functionally similar

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2014
Pancreatic Lgr5 expression has been associated with organoid-forming epithelial progenitor populations but the identity of the organoid-initiating epithelial cell subpopulation has remained elusive.

Liver Organoids as an In Vitro Model to Study Primary Liver Cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Primary liver cancers (PLC), including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), are among the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Bi-dimensional in vitro models are unable to recapitulate the key features of PLC; consequently, recent advancements in three-dimensional in vitro systems, such as organoids, opened up ...

Scalable production of tissue-like vascularized liver organoids from human PSCs

open access: yesExperimental and Molecular Medicine, 2023
The lack of physiological parity between 2D cell culture and in vivo culture has led to the development of more organotypic models, such as organoids. Organoid models have been developed for a number of tissues, including the liver.

Droplet-engineered organoids recapitulate parental tissue transcriptome with inter-organoid homogeneity and inter-tumor cell heterogeneity

open access: yesFundamental Research
Organoids are expected to function as effective human organ models for precision cancer studies and drug development. Currently, primary tissue-derived organoids, termed non-engineered organoids (NEOs), are produced by manual pipetting or liquid handling

Bioengineering liver microtissues for modeling non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

open access: yesEXCLI Journal : Experimental and Clinical Sciences, 2023
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the world’s most common chronic liver disease. However, due to the lack of reliable in vitro NAFLD models, drug development studies have faced many limitations, and there is no food and drug ...
