Abstract: The present invention relates to a heart targeting agent comprising tannic acid, in which the agent aids a heart disease therapeutic drug to be delivered to the heart and bind to the cardiac myocardium by inducing tannylation of the drug so as to make heart targeting and accumulation of the drug possible. Unlike the conventional invasive method used for the traditional drugs to be able to target the heart, the agent of the present invention can help a drug to target the heart with high efficiency just via non-invasive intravenous administration.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for fabrication of a three-dimensional lung organoid comprising human stem cell-derived alveolar macrophages. Specifically, a lung organoid is fabricated by co-culturing cells not expressing the definitive endoderm marker CRCX4 according to a fabrication method of the present disclosure. The lung organoid comprises type 1 and type 2 alveolar epithelial cells as well as alveolar macrophages and realizes infectious or inflammatory responses unlike conventional lung organoids that contain no immune cells and as such, can be advantageously used in studying mechanisms of related lung diseases, excavating biomarkers, developing therapeutic agents, and so on.
