Accessible and highly observable gastrointestinal organoid model systems for studying host-pathogen interactions

Moritz Hofer

Traditional cell cultures have long been fundamental to biological research, offering an alternative to animal models burdened by ethical constraints and procedural intricacies, often lacking relevance to human physiology and disease. Moreover, their inabi ...

Bioengineering functional organoid models across scales

Tania Hübscher

The last two decades have seen the development of organoid models for many different tissues and organs. Organoids are three-dimensional organ-mimetics derived from stem or progenitor cells comprising various specialized cell types, resembling the architec ...

Bioengineering human mini-intestines with in vivo-like complexity and function

Olga Mitrofanova

Biological research heavily relies on the use of animal models, which has made it difficult to answer specific questions about human biology and disease. However, with the advent of human organoids - miniature versions of tissues generated in 3D human stem ...

EPFL2023

In humans, mice, and other mammals key internal organs such as the gut, the lungs, the pancreas, and the liver all derive from the same embryonic tissue: the endoderm. The development of all of these structures thus depends on a same set of early cells, an ...

Engineering next generation organoids through guided stem cell self-organisation

Mikhail Nikolaev

One of the long-standing goals in the field of tissue engineering is the fabrication of de novo tissues or even organs to provide better tissue models for basic research and drug discovery, and to alleviate a shortage of donor organs in the future. Resear ...

Defined matrices for epithelial organoid culture and disease modelling

Saba Rezakhani

Advances in our understanding of the biology of stem cells and their niches have provided the necessary foundation to create in vitro complex self-organizing three-dimensional (3D) structures called organoids. While organoids represent a highly promising n ...

Intestinal stem cells differentiation and its application in cancer therapy

Maxim Norkin

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the deadliest cancers worldwide. Despite extensive research in the field, new therapies targeting CRC are in urgent need. CRC is a highly heterogeneous disease with high levels of intra- and inter-patient heterogeneity. Ca ...

EPFL2021

Homeostatic mini-intestines through scaffold-guided organoid morphogenesis

Matthias Lütolf, Nathalie Brandenberg, Yoji Tabata, Nikolche Gjorevski, Mikhail Nikolaev, Nicolas Antoine Vincent Broguiere, 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, George Coukos, Krisztian Homicsko, Nathalie Brandenberg, Fabien Kuttler, 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 ...

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 ...
