Abstract:
Lung cancer is a complex milieu of genomically altered cancer cells, a diverse collection of differentiated cells and nonneoplastic stroma. Lung cancer organoids is a three-dimensional structure grown from patient cancer tissue that could mimic in vivo complex behavior and cellular architecture of the cancer. Furthermore, the genomic alterations of the primary lung tumor is captured ex vivo . Lung cancer organoids have become an important preclinical model for oncology studies in recent years. It could be used to model the development of lung cancer, investigate the process of tumorigenesis, and also study the signaling pathways. The organoids could also be a platform to perform drug screening and biomarker validation of lung cancer, providing a promising prediction of patient-specific drug response. In this review, we described how lung cancer organoids have opened new avenues for translating basic cancer research into clinical therapy and discussed the latest and future developments in organoid technology, which could be further applied in lung cancer organoids research.
