Making Eggs from Male Mice – Researchers differentiated male iPSCs into oocytes, which gave rise to offspring after fertilization.
Liver Regeneration – Transitional liver progenitor cells are bipotent and differentiate into hepatocytes during regeneration.
A Key Factor for SARS-CoV-2 Infection – Scientists used a multi-organoid platform to identify the role of circadian-clock regulation in SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Pancreatic Cancer Organoids – Transcriptomic analysis of pancreatic cancer organoids suggested that non-neoplastic cells in the tumor microenvironment can modulate tumor cell invasion.
