Organoids have extensive therapeutic potential and are increasingly opening up new avenues within regenerative medicine. However, their clinical application is greatly limited by the lack of effective GMP-compliant systems for organoid expansion in culture. Here, we envisage that use extracellular matrix (ECM) hydrogels derived from decellularized tissues (DT) can provide an environment capable directing cell growth. These gels possess biochemical signature tissue-specific ECM translation. Gels porcine small intestine (SI) mucosa/submucosa enable formation growth endoderm-derived human organoids, such as gastric, hepatic, pancreatic, SI. be used a tool direct derivation, with stable transcriptomic signature, vivo delivery. The development these ECM-derived opens organoids to clinically.

Organoids-cellular aggregates derived from stem or progenitor cells that recapitulate organ function in miniature-are of growing interest developmental biology and medicine. Organoids have been developed for organs tissues such as the liver, gut, brain, pancreas; they are used surrogates to study a wide range questions basic biology, genetic disorders, therapies. However, many organoids reported date cultured Matrigel, which is prepared secretion Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm mouse sarcoma cells; Matrigel complex poorly defined. This complexity makes it difficult elucidate Matrigel-specific factors governing organoid development. In this review, we discuss promising Matrigel-free methods generation maintenance use decellularized extracellular matrix (ECM), synthetic hydrogels, gel-forming recombinant proteins.

Innovations in biomaterials and stem cell technology have allowed for the emergence of novel three-dimensional (3D) tissue-like structures known as organoids spheroids. As a result, compared to conventional 2D culture animal models, these complex 3D improved accuracy facilitated vitro investigations human diseases, development, personalized medical treatment. Due rapid progress this field, numerous spheroid organoid production methodologies been published. However, many current techniques are limited by complexity, throughput, reproducibility. Microfabricated microscale platforms (e.g., microfluidics microprinting) shown promise address some limitations both generation. microfluidic devices improve nutrient delivery exchange arrayed size-controlled areas that yield more uniform spheroids higher throughput at lower cost. In review, we discuss most recent methods, challenges currently faced production, microfabricated applications improving Specifically, focus on how microfabrication methods such lithography, microcontact printing, systems can advance medicine.

Abstract The recent demonstration that primary cells from the liver can be expanded in vitro as organoids holds enormous promise for regenerative medicine and disease modelling. use of three-dimensional (3D) cultures based on ill-defined potentially immunogenic matrices, however, hampers translation organoid technology into real-life applications. We here chemically defined hydrogels efficient derivation both mouse human hepatic organoids. Organoid growth is found to highly stiffness-sensitive, a mechanism independent acto-myosin contractility requiring instead activation Src family kinases (SFKs) yes-associated protein 1 (YAP). Aberrant matrix stiffness, other hand, results compromised proliferative capacity. Finally, we demonstrate establishment biopsy-derived without animal components at any step process. Our approach thus opens up exciting perspectives protocols organoid-based medicine.
