Abstract
Organoids are rapidly self-organizing 3D in vitro cultures derived from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) or adult stem cells (ASCs) that possess disease-like characteristics with high success rates. Due to their ability to retain tissue structure, biological phenotypes, and genetic information, they have been utilized as a novel in vitro model for disease research. In recent years, scientists have established self-organizing 3D organoids for human endometrium, fallopian tubes, ovaries, and cervix by culturing stem cells with cytokines in 3D scaffolds. The integration of organoids with animal models, organ-on-a-chip systems, and 3D printing technologies offers a novel preclinical model for exploring disease mechanisms and developing treatments. This review elaborate on the recent research progress of stem cells-formed organoids in the field of gynecology from the aspects of constructing gynecological disease organoids, drug screening and new drug development, simulation modeling, allogeneic transplantation, regenerative medicine and personalized treatment."
期刊介绍:
The purpose of Stem Cell Reviews and Reports is to cover contemporary and emerging areas in stem cell research and regenerative medicine. The journal will consider for publication:
i) solicited or unsolicited reviews of topical areas of stem cell biology that highlight, critique and synthesize recent important findings in the field.
ii) full length and short reports presenting original experimental work.
iii) translational stem cell studies describing results of clinical trials using stem cells as therapeutics.
iv) papers focused on diseases of stem cells.
v) hypothesis and commentary articles as opinion-based pieces in which authors can propose a new theory, interpretation of a controversial area in stem cell biology, or a stem cell biology question or paradigm. These articles contain more speculation than reviews, but they should be based on solid rationale.
vi) protocols as peer-reviewed procedures that provide step-by-step descriptions, outlined in sufficient detail, so that both experts and novices can apply them to their own research.
vii) letters to the editor and correspondence.
In order to facilitate this exchange of scientific information and exciting novel ideas, the journal has created five thematic sections, focusing on:
i) the role of adult stem cells in tissue regeneration;
ii) progress in research on induced pluripotent stem cells, embryonic stem cells and mechanism governing embryogenesis and tissue development;
iii) the role of microenvironment and extracellular microvesicles in directing the fate of stem cells;
iv) mechanisms of stem cell trafficking, stem cell mobilization and homing with special emphasis on hematopoiesis;
v) the role of stem cells in aging processes and cancerogenesis.
