Abstract
Complex three-dimensional in vitro organ-like models, or organoids, offer a unique biological tool with distinct advantages over two-dimensional cell culture systems, which can be too simplistic, and animal models, which can be too complex and may fail to recapitulate human physiology and pathology. Significant progress has been made in driving stem cells to differentiate into different organoid types, though several challenges remain. For example, many organoid models suffer from high heterogeneity, and it can be difficult to fully incorporate the complexity of in vivo tissue and organ development to faithfully reproduce human biology. Successfully addressing such limitations would increase the viability of organoids as models for drug development and preclinical testing. On April 3-6, 2022, experts in organoid development and biology convened at the Keystone Symposium "Organoids as Tools for Fundamental Discovery and Translation" to discuss recent advances and insights from this relatively new model system into human development and disease.

Medicine (Baltimore) 2021; 100:e25375. [PMID: 33832123 PMCID: PMC8036095 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000025375] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2020] [Accepted: 03/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
RATIONALE Alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of the pulmonary veins (ACD/MPV) is a rare congenital malformation in neonates that results in severe respiratory distress and pulmonary hypertension. ACD/MPV is caused by mutations in the FOXF1 gene. Herein, a new case of a girl with ACD/MPV carrying a novel pathogenic variant of FOXF1 was reported. PATIENT CONCERNS A 3-month-old Chinese girl was admitted to the hospital presenting a complaint of cyanosis for 10 days and respiratory distress for 2 days. The history of foreign body inhalation was denied. DIAGNOSES Blood routine, liver and kidney function, electrolytes, type B natriuretic peptide, electrocardiogram, cardiac computed tomography (CT), and echocardiography were done after admission. Dysplasia of the alveolar and the left upper pulmonary vein was displayed through cardiac CT. Echocardiography showed atrial septal defect, tricuspid valve malformation, and pulmonary hypertension. Sequence analysis of FOXF1 from genomic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) revealed that the patient was heterozygous for a novel missense variant (c.418 C>T, p.Pro140Gly). Furthermore, genetic analysis of both parents confirmed the de novo occurrence of the variant. Conservation analysis showed that the locus was highly conserved across species. Then, ACD/MPV was a clinical diagnosis. INTERVENTIONS After admission, nasal catheter oxygen inhalation, cefazoxime sodium, furosemide diuretic, milrinone lactate, and Bosentan were given to the patient. OUTCOMES After 6 days of hospitalization, the patient's condition did not improved, the parents gave up treatment and discharged. The patient died half a month after discharge. LESSONS ACD/MPV is a rare congenital malformation with a poor prognosis. A new de novo mutation of FOXF1 was found in our case. Non-invasive methods such as DNA sequencing and FOXF1 analysis are helpful in the clinical diagnosis of ACD/MPV especially in early infants with respiratory distress and pulmonary hypertension.

Abstract
Alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins (ACD/MPV) is an autosomal dominant, fatal developmental disorder of the lungs, with a mortality rate of about 100%. ACD/MPV is caused by mutations in FOXF1. Herein, we describe a newborn boy with ACD/MPV carrying a novel pathogenic variant of FOXF1. The patient developed respiratory distress and severe pulmonary hypertension on the first day of life. Despite aggressive cardiorespiratory management, including veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, his condition deteriorated rapidly, and he died within the first month of his life. Lung histology showed the characteristic features of ACD/MPV at autopsy. Sequence analysis of FOXF1 from genomic DNA obtained from autopsied lung tissue revealed that the patient was heterozygous for a novel missense variant (c.305T>C; p.Leu102Pro). Further analysis of both parents confirmed the de novo occurrence of the variant. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of genetically confirmed ACD/MPV in Korea.
