Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Generation of INAD patient-derived NPCs and DA neurons. ( B–D ) Patient and isogenic control lines differentiate into comparable ventral midbrain floor plate neuron progenitor cells. ( B, C ) Day 22 cultures from an INAD patient-derived PLA2G6 mutant iPSC clone 29-1, isogenic PLA2G6 corrected iPSC clone 29-2 (derived from 29-1), and INAD patient-derived PLA2G6 mutant iPSC clone 29-3. ( B ) Uniformly express pan NPC intermediate filament marker NESTIN (green), nuclear (DAPI, blue), floor plate markers FOXA2 (red), and vM FP marker LMX1A. Scale bar = 200 µm ( C ) Sister wells show nuclei (DAPI, blue), uniformly express rostral-to-midbrain marker OTX2 (red) and do not express forebrain marker FOXG1 (yellow). 3×3 montage of representative randomly sampled 10× Phenix confocal fields. ( D ) The differentiated DA neurons are TH (red), NESTIN (green), and MAP2 (purple) positive. Representative images are shown in this figure. Scale bars = 20 µm. DA, dopaminergic; INAD, infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy; NPC, neural progenitor cell.
