Bioengineered GI organoids just got an upgrade! Our new Transgel system combines 3D complexity with bilateral accessibility & remarkable observability, enabling advanced studies on tissue dynamics, stem cell niches, and host-pathogen interactions.🔬

From gastric to colonic tissues: Transgel organoids replicate GI tissue architecture, including stem cell patterning and improved differentiation over time! There seem to be conserved mechanisms for geometry-induced stem cell organization and differentiation across the GI tract.

Transgels enable live imaging of parasite infection in caecal models. Watch larvae invade epithelia in real-time & observe mechanisms like syncytial tunnel formation. Huge congrats to super talented @MoritzHofer_ and thanks to Maria Duque-Correa for the fantastic collaboration!

ALT P-gp efflux transporters in the small intestine. Staining with immunofluorescence antibodies against the efflux transporter P-glycoprotein is in yellow. Its staining co-localizes with the marker villin (red) in the apical brush border of the epithelial cells that line the intestinal wall, creating an orange co-staining pattern.

Following our recent breakthrough on mouse mini-intestines for ex vivo tumor development, we asked ourselves: can this technology be applied to cells from cancer patients? We are excited to announce the answer to this question in our latest publication: rdcu.be/dMuAr

Imagine growing a miniature version of the human intestine in the lab to study gut biology in great detail and test medicines before clinical trials? We are happy to share our latest publication on bioengineered human mini-intestines: authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti… Let’s dive in!

These bioengineered mini-intestines are a powerful tool for exploratory and translational research. They enable advanced modeling of the intestinal #epithelial barrier for drug testing and capturing the multicellular complexity of gastrointestinal diseases.

Thanks, this was a lot of fun!!
🤩The first Swiss Gut Workshop was a success! So exciting to dive into the latest gut research from organoids to the gut-brain axis, all set against the stunning Lavaux landscape🤩
🙏 to all participants for sharing amazing science and @UNIL for support!
