This study shows that heart/foregut-like structures form from human pluripotent stem cells, developing into vascularized cardiac organoids with multiple cell types.

This study uses human organoids to show that PTEN suppresses retinoic acid signaling to drive mesendoderm specification.

This study shows that calorie restriction exacerbates neuronal degeneration in mtDNA-depleted neurons by increasing ER-mitochondria calcium transfer, suggesting CR may not be beneficial for mitochondrial epilepsy.
