Extended Data Fig. 5. C9 ALI-CO neurons show increased genomic instability.

Extended Data Fig. 5

a, Representative images of alkaline comet assay, showing SYBR green stained nuclei of untreated (U) control and C9 hiPSCs or 1 hour (hr) after TOP1i-induced DNA damage (D; Damage) or 1 hr after TOP1i removal (R; Recovery) from 3 independent experiments. b, Confocal microscopy immunofluorescence images displaying DNA damage marker γ-H2AX + foci (green) accumulation in C9 ALI-COs at 150 DIV following 2 Gy gamma irradiation (IR) and quantification. Data expressed as mean ± s.d.; n = 3 ALI-CO sections (> 120 cells for each); Two-tailed unpaired t-test. c and d, Representative confocal immunofluorescence images of γ-H2AX+ foci in CTIP2+ DLN (c) and SOX9+ astroglial nuclei (d) in C9-L2 vs ISO-L2 ALI-COs treated with TOP1i alone ± ATM kinase inhibitor, AZD0156 (ATMi). Quantification of γ-H2AX+ foci. Data expressed as individual foci/cell, mean ± s.d.; n = 95-152 DLNs (c) and n = 99-193 astroglia (d) from 3 independent ALI-COs per group. Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn’s multiple comparisons test. Scale bar=5 µm for all images. See Supplementary Table 3 for detailed statistics.
