Hepatitis C virus infects and perturbs liver stem cells

open access: yesmBio, 2023
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the leading cause of death from liver disease. How HCV infection causes lasting liver damage and increases cancer risk remains unclear.

Application of human liver organoids as a patient-derived primary model for HBV infection and related hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yeseLife, 2021
The molecular events that drive hepatitis B virus (HBV)-mediated transformation and tumorigenesis have remained largely unclear, due to the absence of a relevant primary model system.

Standard operating protocol of hepatic organoid differentiation from human induced pluripotent stem cells [PDF]

open access: yesOrganoid, 2022
Background Mature liver organoids are potential cellular sources for research to understand the pathology of several liver-related conditions, including end-stage chronic liver disease.

Long-Term Adult Feline Liver Organoid Cultures for Disease Modeling of Hepatic Steatosis

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2017
Summary: Hepatic steatosis is a highly prevalent liver disease, yet research is hampered by the lack of tractable cellular and animal models. Steatosis also occurs in cats, where it can cause severe hepatic failure.

Human liver organoid: modeling liver steatosis and beyond

open access: yesCell Regeneration, 2023
AbstractSteatosis, as the early stage of nonalcoholic fatty acid disease (NAFLD), would progress into nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver failure without intervention. Despite the development of animal models, there is still a lack of the human-relevant platform for steatosis modeling and drug & target discovery.

Investigation of Clinical Safety of Human iPS Cell-Derived Liver Organoid Transplantation to Infantile Patients in Porcine Model

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2020
Transplantation of liver organoids has been investigated as a treatment alternative to liver transplantation for chronic liver disease. Transportal approach can be considered as a method of delivering organoids to the liver.

Fast formation and maturation enhancement of human liver organoids using a liver-organoid-on-a-chip. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Cell Dev Biol
Background: Spatial and functional hepatic zonation, established by the heterogeneous tissue along the portal–central axis of the liver, is important for ensuring optimal liver function. Researchers have attempted to develop reliable hepatic models to mimic the liver microenvironment and analyze liver function using hepatocytes cultured in the ...

Efficient and reproducible generation of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived expandable liver organoids for disease modeling

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Genetic liver disease modeling is difficult because it is challenging to access patient tissue samples and to develop practical and relevant model systems.
