OrganID: Organ-derived complex 2D/3D cultures in human disease KU Leuven
2D/3D organoids are miniaturized and simplified in vitro systems of organs derived from biopsies
either from human or animal tissue. They are characterized by heterogeneity and complexity and
therefore resemble well the in vivo situation. If cultured under specific growth conditions, the
stem cells of these biopsies grow out to a spheroid 3-dimensional structures resembling the
original organ they were derived of. One ...
