Development-inspired approach for the derivation of functional and transplantable salivary gland organoids from human pluripotent stem cells [RNA-Seq]
Listed in NCBI GEO
Salivary gland (SG) hypofunction significantly affects the life quality of patients with hyposalivation.
Description
Current treatment options for these conditions are limited and often result in undesirable side effects. To address this issue, we developed a novel and developmentally inspired strategy to derive salivary gland epithelial progenitor (SGEP) cells from human pluripotent stem cells (PSC).
Then we employed SGEP cells derived from human iPSC with a SOX10::GFP reporter to engineer three-dimensional lumenized SG organoids, with well-defined lumens and secretory function, reminiscent of human salivary glands. Upon transplantation into the submandibular gland of athymic nude mice, mCherry+ salivary gland organoids (SGO) integrated into the gland and differentiated into salivary gland phenotypes, including acinar, ductal and myoepithelial structures.

Our findings suggest that SG organoids may hold promise for studying SG development, disease progression and drug screening, as well as to develop cell therapies for salivary gland regeneration.
