A San Diego-based medical research company, Organovo, manufactured the first 3D liver using human tissues for medical research purposes.
This mini 3D liver can perform the important functions of the liver in bioprinted tissues for around 40 days, which is better than the 2D cultures that lasted for about 5 days. The summary of the data was presented on Oct. 22, in the 3rd Annual Cell Therapy Bioprocessing Conference in Bethesda, MD International Bioprocessing Conference.
