What distinguishes successful from failed reprogramming to iPSC? In this new preprint, part of our @IGVFConsortium efforts, we used single cell methylation, Hi-C, RNA and ATAC, and spatial RNA to answer this question biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

Replying to @JoeEcker
@JoeEcker, @ecallaway, Margarita Behrens, and team have produced the most detailed atlas ever of the diversity and connections of neurons in the mouse brain 🧠 Their work is featured in a 10 paper BRAIN Initiative package in @Nature #BICCN #studyBRAIN salk.edu/news-release/salk-t…

Applying this lineage tracing in an isogenic pair of autistic iPSC allowed us to identify that an autism spectrum disorder-specific CTNNB1 stop-gain variant led to altered lineage-specific neuronal production and transcriptional differences.(4/5)

Our results suggest individual progenitor subtypes play unique roles in generating the diverse neurons of the human cerebral cortex.(5/5)

A new study suggests that in addition to exploring the effects of known autism-linked mutations, researchers should assess the potential mediating effects of the rest of a person’s genome. How will you use this insight in your research? By @cqchoi. bit.ly/3Ohnkcp

We performed bidirectional genome editing on iPSCs derived from individuals with autism and controls.

We uncovered that the PTEN p.Ile135Leu variant, found in an ASD-affected individual with macrocephaly, dysregulated cortical neurogenesis in an ASD-genetic-background-dependent fashion by using 2D neural progenitor cells and 3D cortical organoids.
