Development of Low-Cost CNC-Milled PMMA Microfluidic Chips as a Prototype for Organ-on-a-Chip and Neurospheroid Applications

Organoids
Improved in vitro models are needed to reduce costs and delays in central nervous system (CNS) drug discovery. The FDA Modernization Acts 2.0 and 3.0 require human-centered alternative testing methods to mitigate animal-based experiments and discovery ...

An individual based computational model of intestinal crypt fission and its application to predicting unrestrictive growth of the intestinal epithelium. [PDF]

, 2014
Intestinal crypt fission is a homeostatic phenomenon, observable in healthy adult mucosa, but which also plays a pathological role as the main mode of growth of some intestinal polyps.

Novel and unscrutinized immune entities of the zebrafish gut

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Understudied cells of the zebrafish immune system include bona fide immune cells and epithelial (‐derived) cells with immune functions. Research focusing on zebrafish cells which demonstrate similarities to mammalian immune cell counterparts may help us understand the pathologies in which they are implicated. Currently available and advanced tools make

Recipe for pituitary organoids

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
Generation of a variety of organs and tissues from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) has been attempted in vitro. We here present a simple and efficient method for induction of hypothalamic and pituitary tissues from hPSCs. On provision of exogenous agents important for early hypothalamus-pituitary organogenesis, including bone morphogenetic protein

Organoid Models of Lymphoid Tissues

Organoids
Lymphoid organs are critical for organizing the development of the immune system, generating immune tolerance, and orchestrating the adaptive immune response to foreign antigens.

Caspase-8 controls the gut response to microbial challenges by Tnf-alpha-dependent and independent pathways [PDF]

, 2014
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 ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Organoids and regenerative hepatology

Hepatology, 2022
The burden of liver diseases is increasing worldwide, with liver transplantation remaining the only treatment option for end‐stage liver disease. Regenerative medicine holds great potential as a therapeutic alternative, aiming to repair or replace damaged liver tissue with healthy functional cells.

Trophoblast Organoids: Capturing the Complexity of Early Placental Development In Vitro

Organoids
First trimester placental development comprises some of the most critical yet understudied events that impact fetal development. Improper placentation leads to a host of health issues that not only impact the fetal period but also influence offspring ...

Transient PP2A inhibition alleviates normal tissue stem cell susceptibility to cell death during radiotherapy [PDF]

, 2018
Unintended outcomes of cancer therapy include ionizing radiation (IR)-induced stem cell depletion, diminished regenerative capacity, and accelerated aging.
