Tissue geometry drives deterministic organoid patterning

Matthias Lütolf, Nathalie Brandenberg, Mikhail Nikolaev, Nikolche Gjorevski, Olga Mitrofanova

Epithelial organoids are stem cell-derived tissues that approximate aspects of real organs, and thus they have potential as powerful tools in basic and translational research. By definition, they self-organize, but the structures formed are often heterogen ...

Antiangiogenic immunotherapy suppresses desmoplastic and chemoresistant intestinal tumors in mice

Matthias Lütolf, Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Mauro Delorenzi, Sina Nassiri, Alan Nicolas Thierry Guichard, Nikolche Gjorevski, Simone Ragusa, Borja Prat Luri, Laureline Wetterwald

Mutations in APC promote colorectal cancer (CRC) progression through uncontrolled WNT signaling. Patients with desmoplastic CRC have a significantly worse prognosis and do not benefit from chemotherapy, but the mechanisms underlying the differential respon ...

Homeostatic mini-intestines through scaffold-guided organoid morphogenesis

Matthias Lütolf, Nathalie Brandenberg, Mikhail Nikolaev, Nicolas Antoine Vincent Broguiere, Bilge Sen Elçi, Yoji Tabata, Nikolche Gjorevski, Olga Mitrofanova, Devanjali Dutta

Epithelial organoids, such as those derived from stem cells of the intestine, have great potential for modelling tissue and disease biology(1-4). However, the approaches that are used at present to derive these organoids in three-dimensional matrices(5,6)r ...

High-throughput automated organoid culture via stem-cell aggregation in microcavity arrays

Matthias Lütolf, Gerardo Turcatti, Nathalie Brandenberg, George Coukos, Fabien Kuttler, Krisztian Homicsko, Camilla Carla Alma Ceroni, Nikolche Gjorevski

Stem-cell-derived epithelial organoids are routinely used for the biological and biomedical modelling of tissues. However, the complexity, lack of standardization and quality control of stem cell culture in solid extracellular matrices hampers the routine ...

The Effect of Thiol Structure on Allyl Sulfide Photodegradable Hydrogels and their Application as a Degradable Scaffold for Organoid Passaging

Matthias Lütolf, Nikolche Gjorevski

Intestinal organoids are useful in vitro models for basic and translational studies aimed at understanding and treating disease. However, their routine culture relies on animal-derived matrices that limit translation to clinical applications. In fact, ther ...

Low-Defect Thiol-Michael Addition Hydrogels as Matrigel Substitutes for Epithelial Organoid Derivation

Matthias Lütolf, Nikolche Gjorevski, Saba Rezakhani

Due to their selective crosslinking chemistry and well-defined mechano-biochemical characteristics, hydrogels crosslinked by thiol-Michael addition reactions have garnered immense interest for 3D cell culture applications. These hydrogels are typically for ...

Biomaterials Approaches in Stem Cell Mechanobiology

Matthias Lütolf, Nikolche Gjorevski

Multiple molecular and physical cues engage in complex interplay to afford the fine control over stem cell behavior that is required during tissue development, homeostasis, and repair. As a result of a close collaboration between biologists, engineers, and ...

Bioengineering approaches to guide stem cell-based organogenesis

Matthias Lütolf, Adrian Ranga, Nikolche Gjorevski

During organogenesis, various molecular and physical signals are orchestrated in space and time to sculpt multiple cell types into functional tissues and organs. The complex and dynamic nature of the process has hindered studies aimed at delineating morpho ...
