SnRNA-Seq data of human iPSC-midbrain organoids without and with microglia


ABSTRACT: The human brain is a complex, three-dimensional structure. To better recapitulate the brain complexity, recent efforts focused on the development of human specific midbrain organoids. Midbrain organoids consist of differentiated and functional neurons, which contain active synapses, as well as astroglia and oligodendrocytes. However, the absence of microglia, with their ability to phagocyte apoptotic cells and debris represents a major disadvantage for the midbrain organoid system. Additionally, neuro-inflammation-related disease modeling is not possible in the absence of microglia. So far, no studies about the effects of iPSC-derived microglia in brain organoid neural cells have been published. Here we describe an approach to derive microglia from human iPSCs and integrate them into midbrain organoids. Using single nuclear RNA sequencing in collaboration with the RIKEN institute we provide a detailed characterization of the microglia in brain organoids as well as of the influence their presence has on the other cells of the organoids.
