© 2018 The Authors Background & Aims: α1-Antitrypsin deficiency (A1ATD) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the SERPINA1 gene. Individuals with the Z variant (Gly342Lys) retain polymerised protein in the endoplasmic reticulum (E...

Intestinal organoids for modelling intestinal development and disease (2018)
Journal Article
Fair, K. L., Colquhoun, J., & Hannan, N. R. F. (2018). Intestinal organoids for modelling intestinal development and disease. Philosophical Transactions B: Biological Sciences, 373(1750), Article 20170217. https://doi.org/10.1098/rstb.2017.0217

Gastrointestinal diseases are becoming increasingly prevalent in developed countries. Immortalized cells and animal models have delivered important but limited insight into the mechanisms that initiate and propagate these diseases. Human-specific mod...
