However, most organoids up until now could only exist in one type of cell at a time. This makes it harder for scientists to understand the pancreas as a whole. "We wanted to create an organoid ...

An innovative organoid model mirrors the pancreas' complexity, generating all three key cell types to explore development and possible regeneration. Laura is an assistant editor for The Scientist. She ...

For each type of donor cell used and the type of differentiation desired, various medium components are necessary. Organoid media must contain growth factors such as EGF, R-spondin (RSPO1), Noggin ...

It is very hard to do this with closed organoid structures. You have to poke a hole in the ... First, signaling molecule gradients called morphogens present precise instructions for cell type ...

Researchers developed pig retinal organoids similar to human ones, advancing stem cell-based vision restoration and enabling ...

Organoids have gained significant interest due to their ability to recapitulate the structural, molecular, and functional ...

Researchers from the Organoid group at the Hubrecht Institute ... In the gut, a variety of cell types collaborate to keep a balance of electrolytes and water. Bacterial infections can disrupt ...
