Stem cell lines to study familial Alzheimer’s disease

Saturday March 2, 2019

A collaboration of scientists drawn from NIMHANS, NCBS and InSTEM has characterised two representative human-induced pluripotent stem cell lines (iPSC) from families with incidence of Alzheimer’s. The cell lines can now be used to further research into dementia and related disorders. The study was published in Stem Cell Research.
