Authors: Kraiczy J, Nayak K, Ross A, Howell K Duration: 14 days 5 phases Cell source: Patient-Derived iPSC (Pediatric and Foetal samples)

Abstract

This protocol describes the culture and maintenance of human intestinal epithelial organoids (IEOs) derived from pediatric, foetal, and adult patient samples, including media composition for expansion and differentiation, organoid harvesting and nucleic acid extraction, and molecular characterization via DNA methylation, RNA sequencing, immunofluorescence, and genome editing. The organoids are cultured for studies of intestinal development and inflammatory bowel disease modeling.
