A Simple Differentiation Protocol for Generation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-derived Basal Forebrain Cholinergic Neurons for Alzheimer’s Disease and Frontotemporal Dementia Disease Modeling
2020-08-04
Abstract excerpt
The study of neurodegenerative diseases using pluripotent stem cells requires new methods to assess neurodevelopment and neurodegeneration of specific neuronal subtypes. The cholinergic system, characterized by its use of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, is one of the first to degenerate in Alzheimer’s disease and is also affected in frontotemporal dementia. We developed a differentiation protocol to gene...
