What are human organoids? Organoids aretiny, self-organized three-dimensional tissue cultures that are derived from stem cells. Such cultures can be crafted to replicate much of the complexity of an organ, or to express selected aspects of it like producing only certain types of cells. ...
What is the Future of OrganoidsMichelle Freilich
Luckily, scientists can use brain organoids — pencil-eraser-sized masses of cells that function like human brains but aren’t part of an organism — to look closer. How do they do it? And is it ethical? Madeline Lancaster shares how to make a brain in a lab....
This is why researchers at the University of São Paulo in Brazil explored the use of blood cells in order to develop miniature versions of the human liver, producing a viable organ in just 90 days. The “hepatic organoids” can produce vital proteins, store vitamins and secrete bile....
such as transitioning from 2D cell culture to 3D models that are more representative of what is happening in the human body. As we start to get more familiar with that and we look at spheroids, organoids, or other tissue engineering applications, it is starting to ...
Study of prion diseases with a human cerebral organoids model suggests that chronic waste disease (CWD) is unlikely to spread from animals to humans (PMID: 38781931). Receive content, products, events as well as relevant industry updates from The Pathologist and its sponsors. Email* Choose ...

are using genomics and genetics and cell biology to study this, and our main interest is about the strongest ‘switches’ that turn on and off the immune response. We hope that answering these questions will give us clues to how to manipulate the brain-gut-microbiota axis to improve human ...
The brain is a vital component of the central nervous system and is the epicenter for coordinating all the body functions in the human body. The brain is a delicate organ and is present in a bony covering of the skull, preventing mechanical shocks/injuries/accidents. However, it is prone ...
