Functional motor neurons from patient iPSC lines to support ALS research and drug discovery
Axol Bioscience, leader in iPSC technology had launched the axoCells ALS Toolbox to support drug discovery and research into amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The toolbox includes motor neurons from six different donor lines including two unaffected donors, one C9orf72 carrying donor (a sibling to one of the ALS donors), and three donors each carrying significant genotypes associated with ALS, SOD1, C9orf72 and TDP43.
