Recent advances in AD reprogrammed cells.

Derived Cell Type or Tissue Detailed Example References
iPSCs
Neurons Rouleau et al. (2020) developed a 3D neural tissue with human iPSC from healthy or AD donors [147]. 2D culture, iPCS from fAD patients: [93,148]
3D culture, sAD patients: [145]
3D culture, fAD patients: [146]
iPSC development from AD patients: [143,144,147]
Others: astroglia, endothelial cells, NPCs iPSC-derived human brain endothelial cells with the PSEN1 mutation show altered tight and adherent junctions and efflux properties compared to cells derived from healthy donors [151]. Astroglia: [149]
Endothelial cell: [150,151]
NPC: [152,153]
Organoids Gonzalez et al. (2018) developed iPSC-derived cerebral organoids, which show a cortical organization. When the used iPSC comes from an AD patient, the developed cerebral organoid exhibits AD features such as Aβ deposition and accumulation of hyperphosphorylated tau [158]. Examples of iPSC-derived organoid with fAD mutations: [158,159]
Organoid with an AD-like pathology: [162].
Reviews: [5,157]
iNs
Neurons Hu et al. (2015) derived fibroblasts from control and AD patients into functional neurons with chemicals [161]. [93,161]
