Modeling Tissue Morphogenesis and Cancer in 3D

Abstract

Three-dimensional (3D) in vitro models span the gap between two-dimensional cell cultures and whole-animal systems. By mimicking features of the in vivo environment and taking advantage of the same tools used to study cells in traditional cell culture, 3D models provide unique perspectives on the behavior of stem cells, developing tissues and organs, and tumors. These models may help to accelerate translational research in cancer biology and tissue engineering.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Various tumor spheroids have been fabricated by embedding cancer cells into protein-based hydrogels such as Matrigel, fibrin, and collagen as they incorporate specific cell-adhesive motifs and enzymatic-mediated matrix degradation beneficial to cell proliferation.

    “Currently, various tumor spheroids have been fabricated by embedding cancer cells into protein‐based hydrogels such as Matrigel,[ 64 ] fibrin,[ 65 ] and collagen[ 66 ] as they incorporate specific cell‐adhesive motifs and enzymatic‐mediated matrix degradation which are beneficial to cell proliferation.”
  • The mechanical properties of BME cannot be tailored, rendering it unable to study mechanotransduction during organogenesis.

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.
