Very excited to share our new pre-print using human iPSC-derived organoids containing extensive, mature myelin and functional microglia to model demyelination and oligodendrocyte/myelin regeneration #organoids #MS .
biorxiv.org
We engineered a novel human iPSC-derived organoid system enriched with mature, myelinating oligodendrocytes and functionally reactive microglia. This model enables the study of human CNS remyelinat...

Lipid metabolism is profoundly dysregulated in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), yet the lipid composition of the white matter, where the myelinated axons of motor neurons are located, remains...
