| Title | "Recent advances and challenges in organoid Technology" ＜Abstract＞ Organoids are three-dimensional cultured tiny cellular structures derived from stem cells of tissue or organs to mimic their architecture and function in vitro. Recent advancements in organoid technology have heralded a transformative era in biomedical research. With the ability to model various organs such as the intestine, lungs, brain, liver, kidney, and others, organoids provide unprecedented insights into organ development, disease mechanisms, drug discovery, and predicting in vivo drug responses. This seminar highlights the recent advances and challenges of organoid technology. Further, we will show our recent research progress in organoid/immune-cell co-culture for the prediction of immunotherapy response in canine bladder cancer. Additionally, we will discuss the ability of canine organoids to accurately model rare human diseases such as Cushing's disease and rare histological variants of bladder cancer. |
