Samenvatting:

Organoid technologies are preclinical models in which drug responses or radiotherapies are determined very closely to patient response. While until the recent past there were no three-dimensional systems in which the entire cellular content of an organ could be reflected, we can now create the physiological and structural features of an organ in vitro and model a disease effectively. As these diseases may be developmental defects, chronic diseases can also be investigated in detail at the gene and protein level with these systems. In terms of developmental biology, thanks to the use of organoids, it is possible to learn the physiological internal dynamics of organs and to model diseases other than cancer. Chapters include introductions to their respective topics, recent advancements and how future applications can be implemented to organoid models. Organoids for Preclinical Disease Modeling and Personalized Medicine serves as an aid to researchers working in this vital area of research.
