Application of an iPSC‐Derived Organoid Model for Localized Scleroderma Therapy
Open accessAbstract
Localized scleroderma (LoS) is a rare chronic disease with extensive tissue fibrosis, inflammatory infiltration, microvascular alterations, and epidermal appendage lesions. However, a deeper understanding of the pathogenesis and treatment strategies of LoS is currently limited. In the present work, a proteome map of LoS skin is established, and the pathological features of LoS skin are characterized. Most importantly, a human‐induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived epithelial and mesenchymal (EM) organoids model in a 3D culture system for LoS therapy is established. According to the findings, the application of EM organoids on scleroderma skin can significantly reduce the degree of skin fibrosis. In particular, EM organoids enhance the activity of epidermal stem cells in the LoS skin and promotes the regeneration of sweat glands and blood vessels. These results highlight the potential application of organoids for promoting the recovery of scleroderma associated phenotypes and skin‐associated functions. Furthermore, it can provide a new therapeutic alternative for patients suffering from disfigurement and skin function defects caused by LoS.

PSOs are already being adopted for various applications including disease modeling and regenerative therapy.
“Despite their recent discovery, PSOs are already being adopted for various applications including disease modeling and regenerative therapy [5,7–9], yet several considerations remain, such as their limited maturation and efficiency, and non-anatomical organization of dermal and epidermal compartments.”

The Introduction and Discussion (page unavailable) describe iPSC-derived skin organoids used to treat localized scleroderma in mice, supporting regenerative therapy as an application. The Results identify the disease model as a bleomycin-induced mouse model; the copy does not show the organoids being used for disease modeling. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
