iPSCs to the rescue in Alzheimer's research.

Abstract:

:A crucial limitation to our understanding of Alzheimer's disease has been the inability to test hypotheses on live, patient-specific neurons. A recent study in Nature by Israel et al. (2012) reports that iPSC-derived neurons from AD patients recapitulate multiple aspects of disease pathology.

  • Establishment of endoderm progenitors by SOX transcription factor expression in human embryonic stem cells.

    abstract::In this study, we explore endoderm cell fate regulation through the expression of lineage-determining transcription factors. We demonstrate that stable endoderm progenitors can be established from human ES cells by constitutive expression of SOX7 or SOX17, producing extraembryonic endoderm and definitive endoderm prog...
