背景情况:

阿尔茨海默病 (AD) 导致渐进的神经退行,选择性地影响皮质的谷氨基基和基础前脑胆固醇神经元 (BFCNs).
了解早期的AD病原体对于开发干预措施至关重要,但对患者神经元的直接研究是有限的.
神经元亚型的脆弱性和对AD早期病理性压力的反应仍然不清楚.

研究的目的:

在特定的神经元亚型中调查阿尔茨海默氏症 (AD) 病原发生的独特细胞和分子机制.
建立和利用患者衍生的诱导多能干细胞 (iPSCs) 来在皮层谷氨基基神经元和基础前脑胆固醇神经元 (BFCNs) 中建模早期的AD.

EPS and iPS Cells in Disease Research

Embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells are excellent models for disease research because of their ability to self-renew and differentiate into most cell types. Somatic cells from a patient are isolated and reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells or iPSCs. These iPSCs are later differentiated into the desired cell type, which mirrors the diseased cell of the patient. In this way, disease models have been created for investigating diseases such as Down syndrome, type I diabetes,...

iPS Cell Differentiation

iPS Cell Differentiation

The ability of induced pluripotent stem cells or iPSCs to differentiate into most body cell types has stimulated repair and regenerative medicine research over the past few decades. iPSC-derived blood cells, hepatocytes, beta islet cells, cardiomyocytes, neurons, and other cell types can repair injuries or regenerate damaged tissue in diseases such as diabetes and neurodegenerative disorders.

Neural Regulation

Digestion begins with a cephalic phase that prepares the digestive system to receive food. When our brain processes visual or olfactory information about food, it triggers impulses in the cranial nerves innervating the salivary glands and stomach to prepare for food.
