Spatiotemporal Gradient and Instability of Wnt Induce Heterogeneous Growth and Differentiation of Human Intestinal Organoids
16 Jul 2020
Abstract excerpt
In a conventional culture of three-dimensional human intestinal organoids, extracellular matrix hydrogel has been used to provide a physical space for the growth and morphogenesis of organoids in the presence of exogenous morphogens such as Wnt3a. We found that organoids embedded in a dome-shaped hydrogel show significant size heterogeneity in different locations inside the hydrogel. Computational simulations...
