Modeling Rett Syndrome With Human Patient-Specific Forebrain Organoids
Engineering brain organoids from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) is a powerful tool for modeling brain development and neurological disorders. Rett syndrome (RTT), a rare neurodevelopmental disorder, can greatly benefit from this technology,

Generation and characterization of rat and mouse monoclonal antibodies specific for MeCP2 and their use in X-inactivation studies [PDF]
Methyl CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) binds DNA, and has a preference for methylated CpGs and, hence, in cells, it accumulates in heterochromatin. Even though it is expressed ubiquitously MeCP2 is particularly important during neuronal maturation. This is
