Normal lung and kidney organoids for safety studies

Separate normal lung and kidney studies show organ identity and injury responses, helping select safety endpoints suited to each organ and candidate.

Model & sampleNormal lung and human kidney organoids, with kidney model source and culture approach selected for each study
Study setupLPS lung-injury conditions and kidney drug-injury studies inform organ-specific exposure and control design for a new candidate
AssaysLung: serial morphology, AT1/AT2, ATII-associated LysoTracker signal, SCGB1A1 (CC10) and KRT5; kidney: Nephrin/LTL-associated identity profiling and a doxorubicin injury time course

STUDY EVIDENCE

Lung and kidney organoids for safety studies

Separate lung and kidney studies show organ identity and injury responses.

Normal lung: identity and LPS injury4 study figures
01Normal lung | alveolar
Alveolar organoid morphology and ATII-associated LysoTracker signal

Alveolar organoid morphology and ATII-associated LysoTracker signal

Bright-field, DAPI, LysoTracker and merged views show alveolar morphology and ATII-associated acidic-organelle signals.

02Normal lung | airway
SCGB1A1 (CC10) and KRT5 airway-cell signals

SCGB1A1 (CC10) and KRT5 airway-cell signals

SCGB1A1 (CC10) and KRT5 immunofluorescence show club- and basal-cell-associated signals.

03Normal lung | LPS injury window
Serial morphology under control and LPS conditions

Serial morphology under control and LPS conditions

Day 1, 5 and 7 bright-field images compare control and LPS conditions.

04Normal lung | alveolar endpoints
AT1/AT2 profiling under normal and LPS conditions

AT1/AT2 profiling under normal and LPS conditions

Bright-field, AT1, AT2, DAPI and merged views compare alveolar features under normal and LPS conditions.

Human kidney organoids: model characterization2 study figures
05Normal kidney | morphology
Whole-organoid and local kidney structures

Bright-field and inset views show whole-organoid and local kidney structures.

06Normal kidney | nephron identity
Nephrin- and LTL-associated immunofluorescence

Nephrin- and LTL-associated immunofluorescence

Nephrin and LTL immunofluorescence show podocyte- and tubule-associated features.

Human kidney study: doxorubicin acute-injury observation1 study figure

Morphology before and 24/48 hours after doxorubicin exposure

Bright-field images before and 24 and 48 hours after doxorubicin exposure show changes in kidney organoid morphology.

Alveolar and airway markers, kidney organoid morphology and nephron-associated staining show the model features of both organs.

Study application

Separate lung and kidney studies show organ-specific identity and injury endpoints that can guide complementary safety evaluations for the same candidate.
