Protocol to generate mouse oviduct epithelial organoids for viral transduction and whole-mount 3D imaging

Summary: Epithelial cells lining the oviduct/fallopian tube are essential in reproduction and have been identified as the cell-of-origin in high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC). This protocol describes the generation of organoids from mouse oviduct epithelial cells, providing a powerful in vi...

description Summary: Epithelial cells lining the oviduct/fallopian tube are essential in reproduction and have been identified as the cell-of-origin in high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC). This protocol describes the generation of organoids from mouse oviduct epithelial cells, providing a powerful in vitro tool to study epithelial homeostasis and malignant transformation. We also outline a protocol for whole-mount immunofluorescence and 3D confocal imaging. In addition, we describe approaches of viral transduction to investigate gene function in organoid development and epithelial cell behavior.For complete details on the use and execution of this profile, please refer to Ford et al. (2021).
