Fig.1 Summary of the study (IMAGE) Osaka University Caption Ocular surface ectoderm, which is thought to be the common primordium of the lacrimal gland and cornea, is induced in zone-3 of eye-like organoids derived from human iPS cells. After further differentiation culture, we induced and isolated lacrimal gland progenitor cells by cell sorting and successfully generated 3D lacrimal gland organoids by 3D culture in Matrigel.
