Organoids in Biomedical Research: Opportunities and Challenges Organoids are three-dimensional, miniature models of organs and tissues that are grown in vitro from stem cells or other progenitor cells with the ability to differentiate into a cell type found in a given organ or tissue. They closely mimic the structure and function of human organs, making them valuable tools for studying human development, disease modeling, drug discovery, and personalized medicine. https://lnkd.in/gJrnAenM #worldprecision #Organoids

New Applications for Transepithelial Electrical Resistance (TEER) Measurements Transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) is a methodology that has been used for several decades to measure the resistance across a monolayer of cells to evaluate the barrier function of a cell layer. Historically, TEER measurements were utilized as a basic biological tool as researchers evaluated the permeability of biological layers and the functionality of tight junctions between various cell types. More recently, the utility of TEER measurements has expanded into new and diverse applications in a variety of fields. New applications for TEER measurement that have recently emerged include drug delivery, toxicology, organ-on-chip technology, and quality control of cell therapies. Traditionally used to study the barrier function of epithelial tissues in vitro, TEER has become a versatile and translational tool that has provided valuable insights into the integrity and permeability of complex engineered cell and tissue models as well as quality control measurements for cell-based products. https://lnkd.in/gur8e6NB #worldprecision #TEER
