ioGlutamatergic Neurons WT (isogenic control) - Human iPSC derived cells (ab303447)

Note that this is suitable for studies with WT Glutamatergic Neurons and also serves as an isogenic control for disease models (HTT, other).

ioGlutamatergic Neurons have been reprogrammed from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) using opti-ox, a precise reprogramming technology. Human stem cells, within days, convert into consistent, mature, functional glutamatergic neurons providing a high quality human model for the study of neurological activity and disease.

ioGlutamatergic Neurons cultures consist mainly of glutamatergic neurons (>80%) characterised by the expression of the glutamate transporter genes VGLUT1 and VGLUT2 (see Figure 1). The minor remaining fraction of the neuronal population express marker genes of cholinergic neurons. A bulk RNA-seq analysis shows that ioGlutamatergic Neurons have a rostral CNS identity and express the classical cortical maker genes FOXG1 and TBR1 (data not shown).
