Using pluripotent stem cells, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital researchers have grown human stomach tissues that secrete acid and digestive enzymes in a petri dish. Now, researchers may grow tissue from ...

Jim Wells, PhD, Divisions of Developmental Biology and Endocrinology at Cincinnati Children's, explains how the first-time molecular generation of 3D human gastric organoids (hGOs) presents new ...

When the bacterium Helicobacter pylori infects the stomach, it causes gastric inflammation and increases the risk of stomach cancer. Researchers have been able to elucidate characteristic changes ...

Scientists developed mini-stomach models by culturing patient-derived digestive stem cells in a controlled laboratory environment. The team successfully merged the organ’s three primary regions, ...
