3D brain Organoids derived from pluripotent stem cells: promising experimental models for brain development and neurodegenerative disorders

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) brain organoids derived from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), including embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), appear to recapitulate the brain’s 3D cytoarchitectural arrangement and provide new opportunities to explore disease pa...
