More Details: |
There are two technical impediments for using purified Wnt proteins in serum-free stem cell cultures: rapid loss of activity and toxicity of detergents to stem cell self-renewal. Here, the authors show that lipid-stabilized Wnt3a can establish long-term culture of human intestinal and liver organoids. |
