Editor’s Choice - Development of mouse models of angiosarcoma driven by p53
Valerie Brunton and colleagues report that deletion of p53 in endothelial cells leads to reliable angiosarcoma generation, which, along with establishment of a transplantation model, provides a novel approach for testing potential new therapeutics.
Organoids are self-organizing tissues derived from stem cells that provide a unique system to examine organ development, homeostasis and disease. This At a Glance by Madeline Lancaster and Meritxell Huch summarises the current organoid models of several human diseases, and discusses future prospects for these technologies.
An injection-based chordoma model in zebrafish shows that the hypothesized chordoma oncogene brachyury is insufficient, whereas EGFR and VEGFR2 are sufficient, to trigger notochord hyperplasia, find Alexa Burger and colleagues.
