Differentiation of Fragile-X iPSCs to Neurons

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fibroblasts from a clinically healthy male control (GM08330) or a diagnosed Fragile‐X Syndrome male patient (GM05848) were purchased from Coriell Institute for Medical Research and used to derive induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) clones and subsequent stable, homogeneous neural progenitor cells (NPCs) as described 88. NPCs were expanded in 70% DMEM (Invitrogen), 30% Ham's F‐12 (Mediatech), supplemented with B‐27 (Invitrogen), 20 ng/ml EGF (Sigma), and 20 ng/ml bFGF (R&D Systems) on poly‐ornithine (Sigma)/laminin (Sigma)‐coated culture plates. Neural differentiation was induced by growth factor removal in the same media for 15 days before harvest. Cells were harvested by scraping and pelleting followed by total RNA (including miRNAs) isolation using a miRNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen). Biological triplicates were collected from each undifferentiated NPC and differentiated neuron cultures from control 8330‐8 and two clones from the FXS patient: 848‐1 and 848‐3 88.

Motor Neuron Differentiation of Rat iPSCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Both rat iPSCs, i.e., o-riPSCs and l-riPSCs, were expanded on feeder cell layers in basic-DMEM. For the expansion of rat iPSCs, 1000 U/mL LIF was added in basic-DMEM. For neurogenesis, riPSCs were incubated for 2 days without LIF and compacted to form embryoid bodies (EBs) in hanging drops. After that, EBs were exposed to 5×10-5 M all-trans retinoic acid (RA, Sigma) in basic DMEM for 5 days and were placed in a magnetic cell separation system (MACS; Miltenyi Biotech; Auburn, CA; www.miltenyibiotec.com) by using PSA-NCAM micro beads (130-092-966 Miltenyi Biotech). The sample preparation, magnetic labeling, and magnetic separation with LS columns were conducted according to the manufacturer's instructions. Sorted neuron progenitors were attached to dishes coated with poly-d-lysine hydrobromide (P7280, Sigma)-laminin (L2020, Sigma), and then they were differentiated into motor neurons by addition of 25 ng/mL sonic hedgehog (recombinant mouse sonic hedgehog N-terminal 461-SH; R&D Systems; Minneapolis, MN; www.RnDSystems.com) and 2×10-5 M RA in basic-DMEM. The culture medium was changed every day.

Neural Stem Cell Transduction with AAV

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For RNA-seq, NSCs were seeded in 48-well plates (Greiner Bio-One) and incubated overnight. AAV library #1 or library #3 (same libraries as in Weinmann et al.;53 (link) multiplicity of infection [MOI]: 10,000) was added to the media and remained for the duration of 7 days. For IHC, Labtek chambers (Thermo Fisher Scientific) were coated with Poly D-Lysine (PDL; Sigma)/laminin (Sigma), and NSCs were seeded at a density of 2 × 104 cells per square centimeter overnight. AAVs were added (MOI: 10,000) and remained in the media for 1, 3, 5, or 7 days.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
