Current advances and prospects in biomaterials-guided tools for liver organoids research

Engineered Regeneration
Liver is the largest solid organ in the human body engaged in an array of critical physiological activities that primarily support metabolism, digestion, nutrient storage, detoxification.

Targeting the tumor microenvironment in colorectal peritoneal metastases

, 2020
Peritoneal metastasis (PM) occurs in approximately one in four colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. The pathophysiology of colorectal PM remains poorly characterized. Also, the efficacy of current treatment modalities, including surgery and intraperitoneal (

Cellular aspect ratio and cell division mechanics underlie the patterning of cell progeny in diverse mammalian epithelia. [PDF]

, 2018
Cell division is essential to expand, shape, and replenish epithelia. In the adult small intestine, cells from a common progenitor intermix with other lineages, whereas cell progeny in many other epithelia form contiguous patches.

Liver-bone organoids reveal senescence-driven interorgan crosstalk

Bioactive Materials
The liver-bone axis plays a critical role in age-related diseases. However, current models inadequately capture its complex inter-organ communication.

Widespread parainflammation in human cancer. [PDF]

, 2016
BackgroundChronic inflammation has been recognized as one of the hallmarks of cancer. We recently showed that parainflammation, a unique variant of inflammation between homeostasis and chronic inflammation, strongly promotes mouse gut tumorigenesis upon ...

Reconstruction of liver organoid using a bioreactor

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2006
To develop the effective technology for reconstruction of a liver organ in vitro using a bio-artificial liver.We previously reported that a radial-flow bioreactor (RFB) could provide a three-dimensional high-density culture system. We presently reconstructed the liver organoid using a functional human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (FLC-5) as ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Transplantable Liver Organoids Made from Only Three Ingredients [PDF]

Cell Stem Cell, 2013
Liver cell therapies using induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are in development. A recent paper in Nature by Takebe et al. expands the range of liver diseases that could be treated with iPSC-derived hepatocytes by combining them with endothelial and stromal cells to generate organoids that survive and function extrahepatically.
