Comprehensive Understanding of Gene Editing Organoid (GDO)

Definition:

GDOs are artificially constructed cellular aggregates using gene-editing techniques, which possess structures and functions similar to specific organs.

Application:

• Research Tools: GDOs serve as ideal tools for studying specific tissues or organs. They can simulate disease-related gene mutations or signaling pathway abnormalities, aiding researchers in gaining deeper insights into the pathogenesis and pathophysiological processes of diseases.
• Disease Modeling: Disease models constructed based on GDOs can be used to investigate the development of specific diseases and evaluate treatment strategies. They can mimic genetic mutations and phenotypic abnormalities in specific tissues, providing important references for disease research and personalized medicine.
• Drug Screening: GDOs can be utilized for drug screening and evaluation. By simulating the expression, mutations, or functional dysregulation of specific targets, the efficacy and safety of candidate drugs can be assessed, providing critical information for drug development and translational medicine.
• Personalized Medicine:  GDOs offer possibilities for personalized medicine. Through gene-editing techniques, organoids specific to individual patients can be constructed. These can be used to assess the effectiveness of treatment strategies and the feasibility of individualized therapies, laying the foundation for precision medicine.

Advantages of GDO for Target Analysis and Validation

• Target Simulation: GDOs can simulate the expression, mutations, or functional abnormalities of specific targets. Through gene editing techniques, target genes can be precisely edited, allowing for controlled expression levels within the organoids, thus achieving target simulation.
• Replicating Physiological Environment: GDOs can provide a platform that closely mimics the physiological environment to validate the functionality of targets at the tissue or organ level. Compared to single-cell experiments, GDOs can simulate cell-to-cell interactions, tissue structures, and physiological functions, better reflecting the behavior of target targets in biological systems.

GDO Construction Process for Target Analysis and Validation

Design Gene Editing Strategy

Based on the requirements of the target, design appropriate gene editing strategies and primers to achieve target knock-out, knock-in, over-expression, or knock-down.

Cell Source Selection

Stem cells, tumor cells, or primary cells from specific organs.

Gene Editing Tool Delivery

Methods such as transfection, electroporation, viral vectors, etc.

Gene Editing Efficiency Assessment

Methods such as PCR, sequencing, restriction enzyme digestion, etc.

Organoid Cultivation and Differentiation

Using 3D culture techniques, the edited cells are aggregated into 3D structures, simulating the characteristics and functions of the target organ.

Target Analysis and Validation

Evaluation of target expression levels in organoids, functional studies, drug response testing, etc.

Data Analysis and Interpretation

Statistical analysis and interpretation of experimental data to obtain information about target function and mechanisms of action.
