Organoid Models of Cancer Explode with Possibilities

Publication date: 1 March 2018
Source:Cell Stem Cell, Volume 22, Issue 3
Author(s): Senthil K. Muthuswamy
Organoids have tremendous promise for modeling human cancers and revealing new biological insights. Sachs et al. (2018), Seino et al. (2018) (in this issue of Cell Stem Cell), and Broutier et al. (2017) derive cancer organoids from breast, pancreas, and liver, respectively, not only reporting new methodologies but also showing their utility for translational and clinical cancer research.
