Bipolar disorder (BD) is a severe psychiatric condition marked by episodes of mania and depression, with neurotransmitter imbalance in the midbrain believed to play critical role its pathophysiology. Despite this, there currently no validated model for examining BD-associated molecular changes available. Leveraging recent advances stem cell technology, we developed organoid using human induced pluripotent cells (hiPSCs) from BD patients healthy controls (CTR). To address issues variability...
Abstract The ability to differentiate stem cells into human cell types is essential define basic mechanisms and therapeutics, especially for not routinely accessible by biopsies. But while engineered expression of transcription factors (TFs) identified through TF screens has been found rapidly efficiently produce some types, generation other that require complex combinations TFs elusive. Here we develop an iterative, pooled single-cell screening method improves the identification effective...
