Abstract
Disease modeling of neuromuscular disorders, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), is hindered by limited accessibility of affected cells. This problem can be overcome by generation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC), which can be then differentiated into required cells. Here, we describe the detailed protocol of hiPSC establishment from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of two ALS patients with detected expansion of G4C2 (GGGGCC) repeats in the first intron of C9ORF72 gene, known to be linked with the most common form of familial ALS.Successful PBMC reprogramming with non-integrating Sendai vectors was confirmed by expression of pluripotency markers: OCT4, NANOG, SSEA4, and TRA-1-60 in obtained hiPSC and their ability to differentiate into cells of three germ layers.The generated ALS-patient-specific hiPSC create a possibility for deciphering molecular basis of this devastating neuromuscular disease.
期刊介绍:
For over 20 years, biological scientists have come to rely on the research protocols and methodologies in the critically acclaimed Methods in Molecular Biology series. The series was the first to introduce the step-by-step protocols approach that has become the standard in all biomedical protocol publishing. Each protocol is provided in readily-reproducible step-by-step fashion, opening with an introductory overview, a list of the materials and reagents needed to complete the experiment, and followed by a detailed procedure that is supported with a helpful notes section offering tips and tricks of the trade as well as troubleshooting advice.
