In a recent study, Lish and colleagues used a fully human-based, induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived triculture model of neurons, astrocytes, and microglia to delineate non-cell autonomous contributions to familial Alzheimer's disease (AD). This approach offers a versatile platform to explore early disease mechanisms, dissect cell-cell interactions, and support the development of targeted therapeutic or biomarker strategies.
