Construction of Brain Organoids and Their Application in Neurological Diseases
Over the past decade,since the initial elucidation of self-assembling brain organoid construction protocols,significant progress has been made in this field.These brain organoids exhibit cell types and structures highly similar to those of the developing human brain,making them ideal models for studying the pathogenesis and etiology of both acquired and inherited brain diseases.In addition,the development of region-specific brain organoids has provided targeted platforms for drug discovery and toxicity testing.As a research tool,brain organoids offer new perspectives for unraveling the molecular mechanisms underlying human neurological diseases.In this article,we review the techniques for constructing brain organoids,and their applications in modeling neurological diseases,to provide valuable insights and references for applied research in this field.
