Human primary liver cancer–derived organoid cultures for disease modeling and drug screening Human primary liver cancer–derived organoid cultures for disease modeling and drug screening, Published online: 13 November 2017; doi:10.1038/nm.4438NatureArticleSnippet(type=short-summary, markup= Tumor organoids derived from the most common subtypes of primary liver cancer recapitulate the histologic and molecular features of the tissues of origin, even after long-term culture. These in vitro models, as well as those for colorectal cancer reported in Crespo et al. in a previous issue, are amenable for drug screening and allow the identification of therapeutic approaches with potential for cancer treatment., isJats=true)
