9429 human fibroblasts (Coriel Cell Repository, Camden, New Jersey) were reprogrammed to induced pluripotent stem cells and induced to neural progenitor cells (NPCs) in house according to the methods outlined by Brennand and colleagues (20 (link)). 5535 NPCs were obtained from the Brennand laboratory (21 ). hiPSC-derived NPCs were plated on Matrigel (Fisher, Waltham, Massachusetts) or Poly-Ornithine (Sigma, St. Louis, Missouri)/Laminin (Invitrogen, Waltham, Massachusetts) and passaged 1:6 every 4 days. NPCs were cultured in NPC medium (DMEM/F12 + Glutamax (Invitrogen), 1× N2 (Invitrogen), 1× B27-Vitamin A (Invitrogen), 1ug/ml Laminin (Invitrogen), 20 ng/ml FGF-2 (Peprotech, Rocky Hill, New Jersey) and dissociated in Accutase (Fisher) for 5 min at 37°C. hiPSC-derived neurons were cultured on Matrigel in Neuron Medium (DMEM/F12 + Glutamax, 1× N2, 1× B27 with Vitamin A (Invitrogen), 20 ng/ml BDNF (Shenandoah Biotechnology, Warwick, Pennsylvania), 20 ng/ml GDNF (Shenandoah Biotechnology), 1 mM dibutryl-cyclic AMP (Sigma), and 200 nM ascorbic acid (Stem Cell Technologies, Vancouver, Canada) for all experiments.
