The organoids, based on pluripotent stem cells, reproduce in 3D a specific tissue, in this case the lung mucosa, which can be interacted with at different levels. "Thus, we have been able to ...

UC San Diego School of Medicine researchers found approximately 10-fold higher SARS-CoV-2 infection (green) in lung organoids (left), compared to brain organoids (right).

The pathogens exploit this weak spot: They rapidly colonize the rupture sites and spread into deeper tissue regions. Using human lung organoids, the scientists have been able to elucidate the ...

Researchers have shown that the IGFBP3 protein plays a relevant role in human lung development. The results of the study, which used organoids derived from embryonic lungs, open up new ...

Generating robust organoids for the lung and gastrointestinal system to recapitulate the complex organ environment remains challenging. Quality growth factors (GFs), such as EGF, FGFs, Noggin, BMP, ...

The development of bronchioalveolar and alveolar organoids is cooperatively induced by FGF10, HGF, and KGF/FGF7. FGF2 and IGF-1 also improve intestinal organoid plating. Sino Biological offers a ...

Scientists published more than three dozen papers as part of the Human Cell Atlas, an effort to map the human body cell by ...

Combining stem cells and silicon nanowires in lab-grown tissue has shown promise as a step toward a new treatment for heart ...
