It is attributed to failures of the enteric neural crest stem cells (ENCCs) to proliferate, differentiate and\/or migrate, leading to the absence of enteric neurons in the distal colon, resulting in colonic motility dysfunction. Due to the oligogenic nature of the disease, some HSCR conditions could not be phenocopied in animal models. Building the patient-based disease model using human induced pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) has opened up a new opportunity to untangle the unknowns of the disease. The expanding armamentarium of hPSC-based therapies provides needed new tools for developing cell-replacement therapy for HSCR. Here we summarize the recent studies of hPSC-based models of ENS in 2-D and 3-D culture systems. These studies have highlighted how hPSC-based models complement the population-based genetic screens and bioinformatic approaches for the discovery of new HSCR susceptibility genes and provide a human model for the close-to-physiological functional studies. We will also discuss the potential applications of these hPSC-based models in translational medicines and their advantages and limitations. The use of these hPSC-based models for drug discovery or cell replacement therapy likely leads to new treatment strategies for HSCR in the future. Further improvements in incorporating hPSC-based models with the human-mouse chimera model and organ-on-a-chip system for establishing a better disease model of HSCR and for drug discovery will further propel us to success in the development of an efficacious treatment for HSCR.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/cells11213428","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,29]],"date-time":"2022-10-29T23:45:00Z","timestamp":1667087100000},"page":"3428","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Human Pluripotent Stem Cell-Based Models for Hirschsprung Disease: From 2-D Cell to 3-D Organoid Model"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2543-9450","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kathy Nga-Chu","family":"Lui","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong, Pokfulam, Hong Kong"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0022-7999","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elly Sau-Wai","family":"NGAN","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong, Pokfulam, Hong Kong"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1421","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa1706594","article-title":"Molecular Genetic Anatomy and Risk Profile of Hirschsprung\u2019s Disease","volume":"380","author":"Tilghman","year":"2019","journal-title":"N.
