Résumé : |
The inaccessibility of live human brain cells for research has blocked progress toward understanding mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental disorders. A human model, using reprogrammed patient somatic cells offers an attractive alternative because it captures a patient's genome in a pluripotent stage. Despite current pitfalls, the disease-in-a-dish approach allows dynamic analyses of target cells, offering a unique opportunity to dissect cellular and molecular alterations in a controlled environment. Recent publications have highlighted the use of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to model autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). Here, I will discuss the advantages of the iPSC technology to complement and advance the research in ASD. Furthermore, I will review the literature on upcoming innovative technology in tissue engineering and examine how that could be combined with current stem cell practices for a better disease modeling tool and future drug screening. |
