Human liver organoids; a patient-derived primary model for HBV Infection and Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma
2019-03-05
Abstract excerpt
The molecular events that drive Hepatitis B virus (HBV)-mediated transformation and tumorigenesis have remained largely unclear, due to the absence of a relevant primary model system. Here we propose the use of human liver organoids as a platform for modeling HBV infection and related tumorigenesis. We first describe a primary ex vivo HBV-infection model derived from healthy donor liver organoids after challenge w...
