Gastric patient-derived organoids find increasing use in research, yet formal protocols for generating human gastric organoids from single-cell digests with standardized seeding density are lacking. This protocol presents a detailed method for reliably creating gastric organoids from biopsy tissue obtained during upper...

4.6K
Multiplex in situ hybridization (ISH) was employed to simultaneously visualize the transcripts for two G protein-coupled receptors and one transcription factor in the entire vagal ganglionic complex of the adult mouse. This protocol could be used to generate accurate maps of the transcriptional profiles of vagal afferent...

08:16One-anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB) in Rats
11.5K
This protocol is for the performance of one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) on rat. The operator performs a long and tubular-stapled gastric pouch followed by hand-sewn anastomosis. For this model, the operator reproduces the same ratio between biliopancreatic and common limb in humans; therefore, the biliopancreatic limb measures 35 cm.
