In vitro Generation of an Autologous Thymic Organoid from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells

Abstract: The thymus is an integral part of the adaptive immune system as it generates T cells. Its function diminishes rapidly as the body ages, leading to a compromise of the immune system in the elderly. Reconstitution of adaptive immunity through mass production of different T cell types is therefore a therapeutic need in immunocompromised populations....

Method for Assembling Decellularized Tissue Extracellular Matrix in 3D Tumor Spheroids

Abstract: Cell culture investigations using spheroids and organoid models have had a major impact on biomedical advancement as alternative sources for costly, in vivo animal testing. However, these 3-D cell constructs are limited in that they do not integrate extracellular components within the structure important for more reliable and accurate biological...
