«We have shown that the hydrogel matrix helps the human intestinal organoids (HIOs) engraft into the intestinal tissue, that they differentiate and accelerate the healing of the wound,» said Andrés J. García, Regents» Professor in Georgia Tech's Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering.

«This work provides a proof of principle for using stem cell - derived human intestinal organoids in a therapeutic setting.»

Not exact matches

To better understand the intestine in its normal and pathological states, researchers have created «organoids» by isolating intestinal stem cells from human biopsy samples.

«Because the primary Small Intestine Chip recapitulates the physical microenvironment that cells experience inside the human body, such as fluid flow and cyclic peristalsis - like stretching motions, it exhibits a genome - wide gene expression profile that comes closer to its in vivo counterpart than that of the same intestinal cells grown as 3D organoids,» said first - author Magdalena Kasendra, Ph.D., a former Postdoctoral Fellow on Ingber's team and now Principal Scientist at Emulate, Inc. in Boston.

The team then selected cells from these organoids and placed them inside the Intestine - Chips, which are about the size of AA batteries and re-create the natural microenvironment of the human intestine, including the intestinal epithelium — the layer of cells that forms the lining of both the small and large intestines.

ANN ARBOR, Mich — By combining engineered polymeric materials known as hydrogels with complex intestinal tissue known as organoids — made from human pluripotent stem cells — researchers have taken an important step toward creating a new technology for controlling the growth of these organoids and using them for treating wounds in the gut that can be caused by disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

The primary epithelial cells are expanded as 3D organoids, dissociated, and cultured on a porous membrane within a microfluidic device with human intestinal microvascular endothelium cultured in a parallel microchannel under flow and cyclic deformation.

Objective: Human intestinal epithelial organoids (IEOs) are increasingly being recognised as a highly promising translational research tool.
