Liver organoids offer promise for drug screening and disease modeling, but inconsistent culture methods hinder progress. This review compares liver organoid cultivation techniques to guide standardization efforts.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Cell Biology
  • Regenerative Medicine

Background:

  • Organoids, 3D in vitro structures, mimic organ functions and microenvironments.
  • Liver organoids show significant potential in drug screening, disease modeling, and regenerative medicine.
  • Current challenges include lack of repeatability, consistency, and standardized culture conditions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and compare various liver organoid cultivation methods.
  • To focus on controversial medium components, analyzing their pros and cons.
  • To provide a reference for standardizing liver organoid culture.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of recent liver organoid cultivation studies.
  • Comparative analysis of different culture protocols.
Keywords:
