Elevated brain deposits of amyloid beta (Aβ40) contribute to neuropathology and cognitive dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the role of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) as an interface for the transfer of Aβ40 from the periphery into the brain is not well characterized. In addition, a substantial population of neural progenitor cells (NPCs) resides in close proximity to brain capillaries that form the BBB. The aim of this study is to understand the impact of brain endothelium-derived extracellular vesicles (EV) containing Aβ40 on metabolic functions and differentiation of NPCs.
Progressive non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss (PNSHL) is the most common cause of sensory impairment, affecting more than a third of individuals over the age of 65. PNSHL includes noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) and inherited forms of deafness, among which is delayed-onset autosomal dominant hearing loss (AD PNSHL). PNSHL is a prime candidate for genetic therapies due to the fact that PNSHL has been studied extensively, and there is a potentially wide window between identification of the disorder and the onset of hearing loss. Several gene therapy strategies exist that show potential for targeting PNSHL, including viral and non-viral approaches, and gene editing versus gene-modulating approaches. To fully explore the potential of these therapy strategies, a faithful in vitro model of the human inner ear is needed. Such models may come from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). The development of new treatment modalities by combining iPSC modeling with novel and innovative gene therapy approaches will pave the way for future applications leading to improved quality of life for many affected individuals and their families.
Genetic variants in the GJB2 gene which encodes for the Connexin 26 protein account for ∼ 60% of cases of genetic hearing loss. A novel hiPSC line was generated from an individual with the hearing loss-related variant c.109G > A in GJB2 leading to the p.V37I alteration in the Connexin26 protein. These cells will help to delineate the role of GJB2 in hearing loss pathogenesis and serve as a platform for drug discovery and development.
