🚨 New method alert! @ShanghaiTechUni researchers report a method to differentiate #hPSCs into 3D #NeuralOrganoids that resemble peripheral sympathetic ganglia, producing both neurons and glial cells of the ganglia in a self-organized manner: https://t.co/WsMWKN2v47

3/4 These models can facilitate future research into human sympathetic ganglia and cardiac innervation, encompassing studies on regulatory factors, risk factors, and potential interventions.

2/4 We also developed a system to reconstruct functional connections between the human sympathetic ganglion and the heart, and found that inter-tissue crosstalk promote the development of both human sympathetic and cardiac tissues.

1/4 In this study, we achieved self-organized and enriched production of human sympathetic lineages in 3D culture. Sympathetic neurons and satellite glial cells were generated robustly and exhibited long-term structural and functional development.

There is no need to separately differentiate and co-culture different lineages, which will facilitate future applications.
