Maintenance of age in human neurons generated by microRNA-based neuronal conversion of fibroblasts
20 Sept 2016
Abstract excerpt
Aging is a major risk factor in many forms of late-onset neurodegenerative disorders. The ability to recapitulate age-related characteristics of human neurons in culture will offer unprecedented opportunities to study the biological processes underlying neuronal aging. Here, we show that using a recently demonstrated microRNA-based cellular reprogramming approach, human fibroblasts from postnatal to near...
