Abstract
Nadadhur et al. generated TSC disease models using patient iPSCs. While neuron mono-cultures showed an increase in network activity and dendritic branching, only when co-cultured with oligodendrocytes (OLs), hypertrophy and axonal abnormalities were observed. Neuron-OL interactions, modulated by mTOR regulators, support use of mixed cultures for TSC disease modeling and drug development.
