Organoids derived from TSC2−/− hiPSCs but not from isogenic TSC2+/− or TSC2+/+ hiPSCs share a common transcriptional signature and a myomelanocytic cell phenotype with kidney AMLs, and develop epithelial cysts, replicating two major TSC-associated kidney lesions driven by genetic mechanisms that cannot be consistently recapitulated with transgenic mice. The gene discussed is TSC2; the disease is medical procedure.
