Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare and fatal genetic condition that arises from a single nucleotide alteration in the LMNA gene, leading to the production of a defective lamin A protein known as progerin. The accumulation of progerin accelerates the onset of a dramatic prematur...

Over the past 20 years, the use of pluripotent stem cells to mimic the complexities of the human neuromuscular junction has received much attention. Deciphering the key mechanisms underlying the establishment and maturation of this complex synapse has been driven by the dual goals of addressing d...

Glycogen storage disease type III (GSDIII) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a deficiency of glycogen debranching enzyme (GDE) leading to cytosolic glycogen accumulation and inducing liver and muscle pathology. Skin fibroblasts from three GSDIII patients were reprogrammed into i...

Phelan-McDermid syndrome (PMS) is a rare genetic disease characterized by a global developmental delay with autism spectrum disorder. PMS is caused by loss of function mutations in the SHANK3 gene leading to SHANK3 protein haploinsufficiency. This study describes the generation of isogenic clones...
