Grant Activity:
Regenerative surgery for liver disease using human iPSC-derived liver organoids
Purpose:
This project will develop a new treatment for liver disease. Using a patient’s own stem cells, we will generate the key components of liver tissue and combine this into mini-liver units called organoids. Organoids will be transplanted into the body (in the groin), for initial development around a major artery/vein, forming a “second liver†in the body. We will then remove diseased liver tissue and replace this with the second liver, in a surgical procedure similar to liver transplantation.
