Accelerating Maturation of Human iPSC-Derived Dopamine Neurons with Organ-Chip Technology
Author(s): Yang Woo*
The maturation of human-induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPSC)-derived dopamine neurons holds great promise for disease modeling and drug
discovery in neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson's disease. However, achieving the appropriate maturation state remains a significant
challenge. This study explores the application of Organ-chip technology to accelerate the maturation of iPSC-derived dopamine neurons. Organchips
provide a microfluidic environment that mimics in vivo conditions, allowing for precise control of biochemical and biophysical cues. By
culturing iPSC-derived dopamine neurons within Organ-chips, we observe enhanced maturation, including increased neuronal complexity,
functional properties and maturity markers. These findings offer a novel approach to advancing the development of more physiologically relevant in vitro models for neu.. Read More»
