The guts of it.
Society and the English language afford 'guts' almost independent sentient being status. Long considered the source of courage, 'that took guts'; determination, 'what a gutsy effort'; and instinct or intuition, 'I had a gut feeling', the guts have also been an emotional powerhouse - disappointment is likened to 'being kicked in the guts' and an intense dislike for someone can be summed up by 'I...
متن کاملAdvancing Intestinal Organoid Technology Toward Regenerative Medicine
With the emergence of technologies to culture intestinal epithelial cells in vitro as various forms of intestinal organoids, there is growing interest in using such cultured intestinal cells as a source for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. One such approach would be to combine the organoid technology with methodologies to engineer the culture environment, particularly the three-dim...
متن کاملA urine-dependent human urothelial organoid offers a viable alternative to rodent models of infection
Murine models describe a defined host/pathogen interaction for urinary tract infection, but human cell studies are scant. Although recent human urothelial organoid models are promising, none tolerate urine, the natural substrate of the tissue and of the uropathogens that live there. We developed a novel human organoid from progenitor cells which demonstrates the key structural hallmarks and bio...
متن کاملBone morphogenetic protein guts it out
Hippo throws its weight behind migrating cells L ucas et al. show that the Hippo pathway helps polarize actin so that groups of Drosophila cells can move in unison. Cells often journey in packs during development and cancer metastasis. In the Drosophila ovary, a group of 4–8 border cells traverses the egg chamber and sidles up to the maturing egg. This maneuver requires adjustments by the actin...
متن کاملA video protocol of retroviral infection in primary intestinal organoid culture.
Lgr5-positive stem cells can be supplemented with the essential growth factors Egf, Noggin, and R-Spondin, which allows us to culture ever-expanding primary 3D epithelial structures in vitro. Both the architecture and physiological properties of these 'mini-guts', also called organoids, closely resemble their in vivo counterparts. This makes them an attractive model system for the small intesti...
