The invention belongs to the technical field of
organoid culture, and particularly relates to a culture medium for gastrointestinal
stromal tumor organoids and a culture method of the culture medium. The invention focuses on the
tumor microenvironment, and systematically screens the
growth factor and the corresponding
receptor which are highly expressed in the
tumor cells and the microenvironment thereof through deep analysis of
GIST single cell sequencing data. Through rigorous screening and identification processes, it is finally determined that four growth factors of
CTGF, IGF2, PDGF-BB and SCF and corresponding receptors of the four growth factors show significant high expression in
GIST tumors. Experiments prove that when four key growth factors, namely
CTGF, IGF2, PDGF-BB and SCF, are simultaneously added into a
GIST organoid culture
system, a remarkable synergistic effect exists among the growth factors, and the growth activity of GIST
tumor cells is remarkably improved, so that in-vitro continuous proliferation of the GIST
tumor cells is promoted, and the culture success rate of the GIST
organoid is remarkably improved.
