Brain organoids recapitulate in vitro the specific stages of in vivo human brain development, thus offering an innovative tool by which to model human neurodevelopmental disease. We review here how brain organoids have been used to study neurodevelopmental disease and consider their potential for both technological advancement and therapeutic development.
类脑器官在体外重现了体内人类大脑发育的特定阶段,因此为模拟人类神经发育性疾病提供了一种创新工具。在这里,我们回顾了类脑器官如何用于研究神经发育性疾病,并考虑了它们在技术进步和治疗开发方面的潜力。
