Sigma-Aldrich 3Dgro Hu Liver Organoids (ID Cs235475)

Patient derived organoids (PDO) are tissue derived, novel in vitro 3D cell models that recapitulate some key features of the respective organ, thus representing a more in vivo-like alternative to traditional 2D cell cultures. In addition, PDOs offer possible means to reduce animal model use. PDO maybe derived from resections or biopsy of adult tissue and are phenotypically and genetically stable in culture. PDO are an ideal platform for drug screening, disease modeling and tumor immunity studies, and may also be modified by gene editing.

The 3dGRO^® human liver organoid biobank is a collection of tissue-derived normal non-diseased human liver organoids from numerous patients. The biobank contains liver PDOs that are highly viable and express high levels of albumin, HNF4-a, FOXA2, SOX17, CK7, CK19, E-Cadherin, PCK2 along with important cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes activities (Cyp3A4, Cyp2C9, Cyp2B6, Cyp2D6, Cyp1A2).
