- Abstract: Organoids are a novel disease model that is self-assembled from stem cells or malignant tumors and is used in clinical research.They are similar to tissues and organs in the body and have partially functional 3D cell structures.There are two types of traditional models for liver cancer research,i.e.,in vivo models(animal models of liver cancer established by induction)and in vitro cell experiments using corresponding cell lines.Organoids have the advantages of the two types of traditional models and show unique advantages in tumor research.Traditional models cannot fully reflect the microenvironment of cells,which often leads to the inconsistency with clinical research findings,and the emergence of new research models provides a new direction for the research on liver cancer.This article reviews the research advances in liver cancer organoids,in order to provide a new perspective for future research on liver cancer.
