Patent number: 10781425Abstract: The generation of complex organ tissues from human embryonic and pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) remains a major challenge for translational studies. It is shown that PSCs can be directed to differentiate into intestinal tissue in vitro by modulating the combinatorial activities of several signaling pathways in a step-wise fashion, effectively recapitulating in vivo fetal intestinal development. The resulting intestinal “organoids” were three-dimensional structures consisting of a polarized, columnar epithelium surrounded by mesenchyme that included a smooth muscle-like layer. The epithelium was patterned into crypt-like SOX9-positive proliferative zones and villus-like structures with all of the major functional cell types of the intestine. The culture system is used to demonstrate that expression of NEUROG3, a pro-endocrine transcription factor mutated in enteric anendocrinosis is sufficient to promote differentiation towards the enteroendocrine cell lineage.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2017Date of Patent: September 22, 2020Assignee: Children's Hospital Medical CenterInventors: James M. Wells, Aaron M. Zorn, Jason R. Spence, Noah F. Shroyer

Publication number: 20200269230Abstract: An anaerobic chamber system to evaluate human enteric disease is described herein that can be used to test therapeutic components. In specific embodiments, the anaerobic chamber is used to determine the effect of one or more bacterial communities on ex vivo enteroid cultures. In one application, the anaerobic chamber system is used to determine the efficacy of therapeutic components in ameliorating human enteric disease using personalized medicine.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2018Publication date: August 27, 2020Inventors: Tatiana Y. Fofanova, Jennifer Auchtung, Reid Laurence Wilson, Christopher Stewart, Joseph Petrosino, Robert Allen Britton, Jane Grande-Allen, Noah F. Shroyer, Mary K. Estes
