Problems solved by technology

[0006] Although some types of cortical neurons have been previously shown to be generated in aggregate cultures of human ES cells (US20100166720A1; Eiraku, M., et al. Cell stem cell 3, 519-532 (2008); Li, X.J., et al. al.Development136,4055-4063(2009)), but did not show the effect of sonic hedgehog inhibition on corticogenesis of human pluripotent stem cells in monolayer culture

Abstract

This invention relates to in vitro methods for the induction of corticogenesis in human pluripotent cells, such as iPS cells, by culturing the cells under conditions which stimulate retinoid signalling and inhibit TGFss superfamily signalling. This may be useful in production of cortical neurons, in particular patient- specific cortical neurons; the modelling of juvenile and adult-onset neurological diseases; and the development of therapeutics.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the in vitro induction of corticogenesis in pluripotent human cells. Background technique [0002] The cerebral cortex (cortex, cortex) is the synthesis and executive center of the mammalian central nervous system and constitutes more than three-quarters of the human brain (Mountcastle, V.B. The Cerebral Cortex, (Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Mass. 1998). Brain Diseases of the cortex are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in children and adults, ranging from developmental disorders such as epilepsy and autism to late-life neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. Rodent models of cerebral cortex development, Function, and basic features of disease have been extensively studied. However, the primate, especially the human cerebral cortex differs from that of rodents in many respects (Finlay, B.L. et al. Science 268, 1578-84 (1995)). Except In addition to the marked increase in the size of the ...
