Embryonic Stem Cells Helps To Develop Salivary Gland Tissue
Researchers have grown three-dimensional salivary gland tissue that produces saliva like normal glands when implanted into mice. Scientists from Showa University and the Riken Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research in Japan used embryonic stem cells, which have the ability to transform into many types of cell to create an organoid. The study was published in the journal Nature Communications.
