TL;DR: Induced pluripotent stem cells are generated from an 82-year-old woman diagnosed with a familial form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and were successfully directed to differentiate into motor neurons, the cell type destroyed in ALS.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Results show that human embryonic stem cell‐ and hiPSC‐derived astrocyte progenitors survive long‐term after spinal cord engraftment and differentiate toAstrocytes in vivo with few cells from other lineages present.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spinal muscular atrophy: from tissue specificity to therapeutic strategies.
TL;DR: Four issues that may be important in planning for therapeutic success in spinal muscular atrophy are examined and it remains unclear which of these cell types need to be targeted therapeutically.
Book ChapterDOI
Potential of Stem Cell-Derived Motor Neurons for Modeling Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss salient aspects of human development and neurodegeneration and consider how they can inform the design of appropriate cell models for disease modeling and discuss some of the technological challenges that still remain to be addressed.
Patent
Treatment of proximal spinal muscular atrophy
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present methods and pharmaceutical compositions for treating or ameliorating an effect of proximal spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and methods for preventing or slowing motor neuron death in a subject having SMA.
