This protocol offers detailed instructions for establishing murine small intestine organoids, isolating type-1 innate lymphoid cells from the murine small intestine lamina propria, and establishing 3-dimensional (3D) co-cultures between both cell types to study bi-directional interactions between intestinal epithelial cells and type-1 innate lymphoid cells.

This protocol demonstrates how to use Cytosim, an Open Source cytoskeleton simulation, to investigate the behavior of a network of filaments connected by molecular motors and passive crosslinkers. A generic workflow with step-by-step instructions is followed to vary the number of crosslinkers and plot the resulting network contractility.
