Nature Reviews Methods Primers, 2022 Organoids have attracted increasing attention because they are simple tissue-engineered cell-based in vitro models that recapitulate many aspects of the complex structure and function of the corresponding in vivo tissue. They can be dissected and interrogated for fundamental mechanistic studies on development, regeneration, and repair in human tissues.

Review on the Vascularization of Organoids and Organoids-on-a-Chip [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 The use of human cells for the construction of 3D organ models in vitro based on cell self-assembly and engineering design has recently increased in popularity in the field of biological science. Although the organoids are able to simulate the structures and functions of organs in vitro, the 3D models have difficulty in forming a complex vascular ...

Nature Reviews Materials, 2021 Organoids are in vitro miniaturized and simplified model systems of organs that have gained enormous interest for modelling tissue development and disease, and for personalized medicine, drug screening and cell therapy. Despite considerable success in culturing physiologically relevant organoids, challenges remain to achieve real-life applications.

Organoids and Colorectal Cancer [PDF]
Cancers, 2021 Organoids were first established as a three-dimensional cell culture system from mouse small intestine. Subsequent development has made organoids a key system to study many human physiological and pathological processes that affect a variety of tissues and organs. In particular, organoids are becoming very useful tools to dissect colorectal cancer (CRC)

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2018 Oncogenic Kras are genetic dependencies for the majority of pancreatic and colorectal adenocarcinomas; however, much remains to be understood regarding its tropism to these carcinomas. Recently developed organoid technology presents a more representative model culture system for pancreatic and colon epithelial tissues as well as better fostering the ...

Natural biopolymer-based hydrogels as designer matrices for organoid cultures [PDF]
Organoid, 2023 Matrigel, a mouse sarcoma-derived extract, is considered the gold standard for organoid cultures. However, it has several drawbacks, including inconsistent and ill-defined composition, varying quality between batches, and potential cancer-related health ...

Organoids are not organs: Sources of variation and misinformation in organoid biology
Stem Cell Reports, 2023 In the past decade, the term organoid has moved from obscurity to common use to describe a 3D in vitro cellular model of a tissue that recapitulates structural and functional elements of the in vivo organ it models. The term organoid is now applied to structures formed as a result of two distinct processes: the capacity for adult epithelial stem cells ...
