    Abstract Characterizing cell identity in complex tissues such as the human retina is essential for studying its development and disease. While retinal organoids derived from pluripotent stem cells have been widely used to model development and disease of the human retina, there is a lack of studies that have systematically evaluated the molecular and cellular fidelity of the organoids derived from various culture protocols in recapitulating their in vivo counterpart. To this end, we performed an extensive meta-atlas characterization of cellular identities of the human eye, covering a wide range of developmental stages. The resulting map uncovered previously unknown biomarkers of major retinal cell types and those associated with cell-type-specific maturation. Using our retinal-cell-identity map from the fetal and adult tissues, we systematically assessed the fidelity of the retinal organoids in mimicking the human eye, enabling us to comprehensively benchmark the current protocols for retinal organoid generation.

    Abstract Advances in the study of neurological conditions have been possible because of pluripotent stem cell technologies and organoids. Studies have described the generation of neural ectoderm-derived retinal and brain structures from pluripotent stem cells. However, the field is still troubled by technical challenges, including high culture costs and variability. Here, we describe a simple and economical protocol that reproducibly gives rise to the neural retina and cortical brain regions from confluent cultures of stem cells. The spontaneously generated cortical organoids are transcriptionally comparable with organoids generated by other methods. Furthermore, these organoids showed spontaneous functional network activity and proteomic analysis confirmed organoids maturity. The generation of retinal and brain organoids in close proximity enabled their mutual isolation. Suspension culture of this complex organoid system demonstrated the formation of nerve-like structures connecting retinal and brain organoids, which might facilitate the investigation of neurological diseases of the eye and brain.
