Summary of effective iPSC-derived cell therapies for demyelinated models

Transplanted cells Intermediate cells Original cells Demyelinated models Conclusions Refs
OPCs iPSC Mouse embryonic fibroblast Cuprizone-induced model Developed into mature OLs and contributed to remyelination [53]
OPCs iPSC Human dermal fibroblast Lysolecithin-induced model Improved remyelination of the optic chiasm, as well as nerve function [54]
OPCs iPSC Human fibroblast, Human keratinocyte Congenital hypomyelination model Formed myelin in the brains of shiverer mice and increased their survival [22]
OPCs iPSC Fibroblast of PPMS patient Congenital hypomyelination model Differentiated to OLs in vitro and successfully ensheathed axons in vivo [20]
NSCs iPSC Mouse embryonic fibroblast MOG-induced EAE Restrained demyelination, promoted remyelination; Trophic effect limited CNS-confined inflammation [21]
iNSCs iNSCs Mouse embryonic fibroblast Congenital hypomyelination model Generated MBP+ myelin sheets in white-matter tracts of the cerebellum [65]
iOPCs iOPC Mouse embryonic fibroblast Congenital hypomyelination model Generated compact myelin in vitro and in vivo [66]
iOPCs iOPC Rat fibroblast Congenital hypomyelination model Differentiated into myelinating OLs and formed myelin in vivo [67]
