Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Biotechnology
  • Cancer Research

Background:

  • Soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) is a rare, heterogeneous cancer group with over 100 subtypes, complicating research and treatment.
  • Patient-derived tumor organoids offer patient-representative models but have low establishment efficiency in STS.
  • Challenges in STS research include understanding diverse biology and developing targeted therapies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an efficient method for establishing patient-derived tumor organoids from soft-tissue sarcoma.
  • To create a robust preclinical platform for investigating STS biology and personalized therapeutic strategies.
  • To overcome the limitations of low organoid establishment efficiency in STS.

Main Methods:

  • A gelatin-based culture protocol was developed to enhance mitochondrial function and cell adhesion.
  • Patient-derived tumor organoids were established from representative STS subtypes, including dedifferentiated liposarcoma and leiomyosarcoma.
  • Histopathological, molecular, oncogenic pathway, mitochondrial dynamics, and lipid metabolic characteristics were analyzed.

Main Results:

  • The gelatin-based system significantly improved the establishment efficiency of patient-derived STS organoids.
  • Established organoids accurately retained the histopathological architecture and molecular profiles of the original tumors.
  • The organoids recapitulated subtype-specific oncogenic pathways, mitochondrial dynamics, and lipid metabolism.

Conclusions:

  • The gelatin-based organoid culture system provides an efficient and effective method for generating patient-derived STS models.
  • These organoids serve as a robust, clinically relevant preclinical platform for sarcoma research.
  • The models facilitate the investigation of sarcoma biology and the development of personalized therapeutic strategies.
