A spatiotemporal and machine-learning platform facilitates the manufacturing of hPSC-derived esophageal mucosa.

Developmental cell
Human pluripotent stem cell-derived tissue engineering offers great promise for designer cell-based personalized therapeutics, but harnessing such potential requires a deeper understanding of tissue-level interactions. We previously developed a cell ...

Early Esophageal Cancer: A Gastroenterologist's Disease.

Digestive diseases and sciences
Traditionally, early esophageal cancer (i.e., cancer limited to the mucosa or superficial submucosa) was managed surgically; the gastroenterologist's role was primarily to diagnose the tumor. Over the last decade, advances in endoscopic imaging, abla...

What insights can spatiotemporal esophageal atlases and deep learning bring to engineering the esophageal mucosa?

Developmental cell
In this issue of Developmental Cell, Yang et al. present an integrated experimental and computational platform that maps the spatiotemporal development of the human esophagus and predicts key signaling pathways governing epithelial differentiation. T...
