Human-Organoid-Based In Vitro Modeling for Environmental Toxicology
Eunbi Kwak,

Abstract:Environmental pollutants pose significant health risks
and elevate
the likelihood of developing diseases. Organoid-based models offer
the potential to transform environmental toxicology by offering platforms
that closely mimic human physiology for precise toxicological assessments.
Here, we discuss recent studies utilizing human-derived organoids
as a preferable in vitro model for screening environmental
toxins. We also address the persistent challenges arising from the
pluripotent nature of their cellular ori… Show more
