Scientists at UCSF invented a microscopic “womb” material for growing artificial organs (organoids) from scratch.

Scientists at UCSF have developed a new biomaterial that enables 3D printing of stem cells into precise configurations within petri dishes.

D organoid models are becoming increasingly important in biological research and drug discovery. However, their use remains difficult to standardize because the workflow is complex, highly sensitive ...

Researchers have developed a human intestinal cell model that closely mimics the structure and function of the human gut, enabling more precise prediction of drug-induced gastrointestinal toxicity ...

While in vivo animal models are commonly employed for pharmacokinetic studies, they are often expensive, low in throughpu,t and typically fail to accurately replicate key characteristics of the human ...

What am I looking at? This video shows actin at work in a growing intestinal organoid. The video is depth-coded for color, which means that cooler colors like blue and purple are closer to the viewer ...

A team led by Prof. Dr. Dirk Haller has demonstrated for the first time that defective mitochondria cause injuries in the intestinal epithelium and influence the microbiome. In this microscopic image ...

Cells on the inner surface of the intestine are replaced every few days. But, how does this work? It was always assumed that cells leave the intestinal surface because excess cells are pushed out. In ...
