In brief

Gastrointestinal organoids derived from pluripotent stem cells provide a three-dimensional model system that replicates human GI tract anatomy and physiology. This technology enables researchers to study human development, disease mechanisms, and physiological processes using human tissue in controlled laboratory conditions.

Gastrointestinal organoids are an exciting new tool for modeling human development, physiology, and disease in human tissue. Derived from pluripotent stem cells, gastrointestinal organoids consist of epithelial and mesenchymal cells organized in an intricate, three-dimensional structure that recapitulates the physiology and microscopic anatomy of the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract. In vitro der…
