Project description:Gene expression profiling of human iPSC, iPSC-derived neural progenitors, and iPSC-derived neurons with or without TARDBP K263E mutation
Project description:We have generated expression profiles of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and iPSC-derived neural crest populations from Familial Dysautonomia patients. These profiles were compared to a normal iPSC line that does not harbor the IKBKAP mutation. All cell types were differentiated from patient derived iPSCs. Bulk iPSCs were harvested for RNA and the neural crest populations were sorted on day 18 for p75/HNK1 before RNA isolation.
Project description:We generated Oxford Nanopore long-read RNA-seq data to compare transcript isoform usage across four primate species and two cell types. We profiled induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and iPSC-derived neural precursor cells (NPCs) from human (Homo sapiens), gorilla (Gorilla gorilla), orangutan (Pongo abelii), and cynomolgus macaque (Macaca fascicularis).
Project description:Comparison of Human iPSC-derived Brain Microvascular Endothelial-like Cells (iBMECs) grown in poly(dimethylsiloxane) tissue chips. Data contains RNA-seq profiles of iBMECs exposed to various levels of shear stress ranging from 0, 0.01, 0.5, and 2.4 dyn/cm2; as well as RNA-seq profiles of FACS sorted iBMECs cultured alone or with primary human astrocytes and pericytes or with iPSC-derived neural progenitor cells.

Project description:Purpose: The goals of this study are to compare the transcriptomic profile (mRNA-seq) of HD and control patient iPSC-derived neural cells to identify alterations in gene expression Methods: RNA were isolated from HD and control iPSC-derived neural cells. mRNAseq using Illumina Truseq mRNA PolyA+ v2 lib prep and Hiseq 2000. Statistical difference in mRNA levels were calculated with subsequent GO and pathway analysis Results: mRNAseq and statistical analysis revealed 1869 differentially expressed genes between HD and control iPSC-derived neural cells. Conclusions: Our study shows 1869 differentially expressed genes between HD and control iPSC-derived neural cells, and reveals gene networks that relevant to the mechanism of HD pathogenesis.
Project description:Our purpose was to investigate genes and molecular mechanisms involved in patients with Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA). Fibroblasts from two unrelated clinically-identified patients (Coriell) were reprogrammed to pluripotency by retroviral transduction. These human induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (hiPSCs) were differentiated into neural stem cells (NSC) that mimicked the neural tube stage and retinal pigmented epithelial (RPE) cells that could be targeted by the disease. A genome wide transcriptome analysis was performed with Affymetrix Exon Array GeneChipM-BM-., comparing LCA-hiPSCs derivatives to controls. The aim was to identify differentially expressed genes which may be associated with early developmental defect before the establishment of mature retinal circuitry. We analyzed iPSC-derived neural stem cells from LCA patient's fibroblast (n=2) and iPSC-derived neural stem cells from healthy people fibroblast (n=2). A total of 21 samples were analyzed : 9 NSC derived from iPSC LCA and 12 NSC derived from wild-type iPSC.
