ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPT P301S homozygous - Human iPSC derived cells available to order.
Wild type ioGlutamatergic Neurons (ab303447) form the genetically matched control for the ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPT P301S homozygous disease model.
ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPT P301S homozygous - Human iPSC derived cells available to order.
Wild type ioGlutamatergic Neurons (ab303447) form the genetically matched control for the ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPT P301S homozygous disease model.
Wild type ioGlutamatergic Neurons (ioGlutamatergic Neurons WT (isogenic control) - Human iPSC derived cells ab303447) form the genetically matched control for the ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPT P301S homozygous disease model. This physiologically-relevant isogenic pairing offers a a rapidly maturing, consistent and scalable isogenic system to study frontotemporal dementia (FTD).
ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPT P301S homozygous are ioGlutamatergic Neurons carrying a genetically engineered P301S mutation in the MAPT gene, encoding the tau protein. ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPT P301S homozygous have been reprogrammed from human iPSCs using opti-oxTM technology, a precise reprogramming technology.
Human stem cells, within days, convert consistently into mature, functional glutamatergic neurons providing a high-quality human model for the study of FTD.
ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPT P301S homozygous express pan-neuronal and glutamatergic markers TUBB3, MAP2 and VGLUT2 by day 11.
This disease model offers a fast and easy-to-use system for investigations into the impact of gene function on disease progression against an isogenic control.
A heterozygous disease model is also available (ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPT P301S heterozygous - Human iPSC derived cells ab307784).

Please note, these iPSC-derived glutamatergic neurons preferentially express the 3R MAPT transcript. Total MAPT in wildtype and MAPT P301S heterozygous and homozygous ioGlutamatergic Neurons is predominantly from 3R MAPT transcript and expression of the 4R MAPT transcript is at a low level, comparable to that of the housekeeping gene, HMBS.

Gene expression analysis demonstrates that at day 11, ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPTP301S/P301S (MAPT P301S/P301S) and the wild type isogenic control (WT) lack the expression of pluripotency makers (NANOG and OCT4) whilst robustly expressing pan-neuronal (TUBB3 and SYP) and glutamatergic specific (VGLUT1 and VGLUT2) markers, as well as the glutamate receptor GRIA4. Gene expression levels were assessed by RT-qPCR. Data is shown relative to the parental hiPSC control (iPSC Control), normalised to HMBS. Data represents day 11 post-revival samples; n=2 biological replicates.
RT-qPCR analysis demonstrates similar expression level of the MAPT gene in both wild type ioGlutamatergic Neurons (WT) and ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPTP301S/P301S (MAPT P301S/P301S) at day 11 post-revival (n=2 replicates). cDNA samples of the parental iPSC line (iPSC Control) were included as a reference.
ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPTP301S/P301S mature rapidly and form structural neuronal networks over 11 days, when compared to the isogenic control. Day 1 to 11 post thaw.

Immunofluorescent staining on post-revival day 11 demonstrates similar homogenous expression of pan-neuronal proteins MAP2 and TUBB3 (upper panel) and glutamatergic neuron-specific transporter VGLUT2 (lower panel) in ioGlutamatergic Neurons MAPTP301S/P301S compared to the isogenic control. 100X magnification.
