Mechano-modulatory synthetic niches for liver organoid derivation

Kristina Schoonjans, Matthias Lütolf, Giovanni Sorrentino, Saba Rezakhani, Ece Yildiz

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. The use of three-dimensional (3D) cultures based on ill-defined and potentially immunog ...

TGR5/Cathepsin E signaling regulates macrophage innate immune activation in liver ischemia and reperfusion injury

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans, Qi Wang

The role and underlying mechanism of plasma membrane-bound G protein-coupled bile acid receptor (TGR5) in regulating macrophage innate immune activation during liver ischemia and reperfusion (IR) injury remains largely unclear. Here, we demonstrated that T ...

Signaling centers, localized groups of cells that secrete morphogens, play a key role in early development and organogenesis by orchestrating spatial cell fate patterning. Here we present a microfluidic approach that exposes human pluripotent stem cell (hP ...

Bioengineering the Human Muscle Stem-Cell Niche for Therapeutic Applications

Omid Mashinchian

In spite of decades of research, no feasible method for obtaining sufficient numbers of uncommitted muscle stem cells (MuSCs) for therapy of degenerative muscle diseases exists. One of the most fundamental problems associated with stem cell therapy of musc ...

Interference of silver nanoparticles with essential metal homeostasis in a novel enterohepatic fish in vitro system

Kristin Schirmer

Silver nanoparticle toxicity has been extensively studied in several vertebrate cells. Its correlation with cellular essential metal homeostasis, however, has largely been overlooked. In this study, we used a novel in vitro model of a fish enterohepatic sy ...

Quantitative analysis of SOX2 and OCT4 expression in pluripotency and differentiation

Daniel Strebinger

Embryonic stem (ES) cells have the capacity to give rise to all cell types of the adult organism and can be used as a model to study early cell fate decisions as they closely recapitulate in vivo events. The M and G1 phases have been suggested to be the ke ...

EPFL2018

Skeletal muscle holds significant regenerative potential but is incapable of restoring tissue loss caused by severe injury, congenital defects or tumour ablation. Consequently, skeletal muscle models are being developed to study human pathophysiology and r ...

Beneficial effects of Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells on Porcine Hepatocyte Viability and Albumin Secretion

Sandrine Gerber, François Rémi Pierre Noverraz, Solène Marcelle Françoise Marie Passemard, Luca Szabó, Aurélien Thomas

Porcine hepatocytes transplanted during acute liver failure might support metabolic functions until the diseased liver recovers its function. Here, we isolated high numbers of viable pig hepatocytes and evaluated hepatocyte functionality after encapsulatio ...

Although stem cells hold tremendous potential for clinical applications, their in vitro manipulation remains very challenging. In vivo, stem cells reside in intricate 3D microenvironments, termed niche, in which many local and systemic extrinsic factors ar ...

Encapsulated hepatocyte transplantation and encapsulated mesenchymal stem cell transplantation are newly developed potential treatments for acute and chronic liver diseases, respectively. Cells are microencapsulated in biocompatible semi-permeable alginate ...
