mTOR hyperactivity mediates lysosomal dysfunction in Gaucher's disease iPSC-neuronal cells
Bi-allelic GBA1 mutations cause Gaucher's disease (GD), the most common lysosomal storage disorder. Neuronopathic manifestations in GD include neurodegeneration, which can be severe and rapidly progressive.

Targeted Integration of Inducible Caspase-9 in Human iPSCs Allows Efficient in vitro Clearance of iPSCs and iPSC-Macrophages [PDF]
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) offer great promise for the field of regenerative medicine, and iPSC-derived cells have already been applied in clinical practice. However, potential contamination of effector cells with residual pluripotent cells (e.g., teratoma-initiating cells) or effector cell-associated side effects may limit this approach ...

Phenotyping Neurodegeneration in Human iPSCs [PDF]
Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology holds promise for modeling neurodegenerative diseases. Traditional approaches for disease modeling using animal and cellular models require knowledge of disease mutations. However, many patients with neurodegenerative diseases do not have a known genetic cause.
