  2. Researchers are working hard to develop new methods for creating organs in laboratories due to shortage of organ donor. Here are seven organs that have been successfully grown in the lab.

  3. Kidneys Scientists created a functioning kidney in the lab using stem cells. This organ could filter toxins from the blood and produce urine, just like a natural kidney. Liver In 2016, researchers created a functioning lab-grown liver. This organ was able to metabolize drugs and produce bile, just like a natural liver. Heart In 2018, scientists created a functioning lab-grown heart from stem cells. This organ could contract and pump blood, just like a natural heart. Lungs Researchers created a functioning lab-grown lung from stem cells. This organ was able to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide, just like a natural lung. ● ● ● ●

  4. ● Eyes In 2020, scientists created a functioning lab-grown eye from stem cells. Like a natural eye, this organ could detect light and produce images. ● Skin Researchers created a functioning lab-grown skin from stem cells. This organ was able to regulate temperature, protect against infection, and heal wounds, just like natural skin. ● Intestines Scientists have recently created a functioning lab-grown intestine from stem cells. This organ could absorb nutrients and produce hormones like a natural intestine.
