We evaluated the redox status, precisely glutathione levels, which have a major impact in cellular detoxification and antioxidant defence in IBD-derived and healthy intestinal organoids.

Incorporating Immune Cells into Organoid Models: Essential for Studying Human Disease
Organoid-based research has made significant discoveries and contributions to our understanding of human organ function in both health and disease. To continue making progress, it is crucial to acknowledge the crucial role of the immune system in all ...

Decellularised extracellular matrix-derived peptides from neural retina and retinal pigment epithelium enhance the expression of synaptic markers and light responsiveness of human pluripotent stem cell derived retinal organoids [PDF]
Tissue specific extracellular matrices (ECM) provide structural support and enable access to molecular signals and metabolites, which are essential for directing stem cell renewal and differentiation.

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 ...

Defective Tmprss3-Associated Hair Cell Degeneration in Inner Ear Organoids [PDF]
Mutations in the gene encoding the type II transmembrane protease 3 (TMPRSS3) cause human hearing loss, although the underlying mechanisms that result in TMPRSS3-related hearing loss are still unclear.

Large variety in a panel of human colon cancer organoids in response to EZH2 inhibition [PDF]
EZH2 inhibitors have gained great interest for their use as anti-cancer therapeutics. However, most research has focused on EZH2 mutant cancers and recently adverse effects of EZH2 inactivation have come to light.

Organoids and Colorectal Cancer [PDF]
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)

Caspase-8 controls the gut response to microbial challenges by Tnf-alpha-dependent and independent pathways [PDF]
Objectives: Intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) express toll-like receptors (TLR) that facilitate microbial recognition. Stimulation of TLR ligands induces a transient increase in epithelial cell shedding, a mechanism that serves the antibacterial and ...

Organoids are developed from stem cells and serve as three-dimensional model systems for different organs. They have great potential for research and medicine, but also raise philosophical, ethical and legal questions which have rarely been discussed in Germany so far.

Control of intestinal stem cell function and proliferation by mitochondrial pyruvate metabolism. [PDF]
Most differentiated cells convert glucose to pyruvate in the cytosol through glycolysis, followed by pyruvate oxidation in the mitochondria. These processes are linked by the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC), which is required for efficient ...
