Physiologically relevant cellular models are critical for understanding complex pathological processes. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder characterised by motor and non-motor symptoms. Several cellular models for PD have been developed to reproduce the a...

Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP) leads to progressive gait disturbances with lower limb muscle weakness and spasticity. Mutations in SPG4 are a major cause of autosomal-dominant HSP. Spastin, the protein encoded by SPG4, is a microtubule-severing protein and is enriched in the distal axon of cor...

Fibroblasts from eight individuals were chosen to evaluate variability in the establishment of iPSC lines and to develop future cellular models of disease. From the eight patients four were healthy controls (Cont) and four were schizophrenic (Sz). All the patients were males with ages ranging from 2...

Acetylation of α-tubulin at conserved lysine 40 (K40) amino acid residue regulates microtubule dynamics and controls a wide range of cellular activities. Dysregulated microtubule dynamics characterised by differential α-tubulin acetylation is a hallmark of cancer, neurodegeneration and other complex...

Understanding the molecular bases of neurological and psychiatric conditions is hampered by a lack of suitable patient-derived cellular models. The olfactory mucosa is a continually regenerating neural tissue that contains multipotent neural stem cells which are accessible and expandable in vitro as...

DNA methylation of gene promoter regions represses transcription and is a mechanism via which environmental risk factors could affect cells during development in individuals at risk for schizophrenia. We investigated DNA methylation in patient-derived cells that might shed light on early development...
