Abstract

Development of therapeutics for genetically complex neurodegenerative diseases such as sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has largely been hampered by lack of relevant disease models. Reprogramming of sporadic ALS patients’ fibroblasts into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) and differentiation into affected neurons that show a disease phenotype could provide a cellular model for disease mechanism studies and drug discovery. Here we report the reprogramming to pluripotency of fibroblasts from a large cohort of healthy controls and ALS patients and their differentiation into motor neurons. We demonstrate that motor neurons derived from three sALS patients show de novo TDP-43 aggregation and that the aggregates recapitulate pathology in postmortem tissue from one of the same patients from which the iPSC were derived. We configured a high-content chemical screen using the TDP-43 aggregate endpoint both in lower motor neurons and upper motor neuron like cells and identified FDA-approved small molecule modulators including Digoxin demonstrating the feasibility of patient-derived iPSC-based disease modelling for drug screening.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
