GROWING ORGANS IN A NUTRIENT MEDIUM WITH CANCER CELLS
Abstract
Currently, the concept of organ culture in the laboratory and bio-organs is gaining great importance in the field of medicine and biotechnology. This article analyzes the fundamentals of the technology of growing organ cells in a nutrient medium using cancer cells, its molecular mechanisms and practical applications. Cancer cells, with their rapid growth and development properties, offer new opportunities for creating organoid models. The article discusses the high-quality cultivation of bio-organs by modifying the nutrient medium of cells, signaling pathways, and controlling the plant environment in bioreactors. At the same time, the use of cancer cells in organoid models for drug testing and regenerative medicine is also discussed. The article summarizes modern scientific research and innovations in the field of bio-organoids, revealing future scientific and clinical opportunities.
