Genome-wide transcriptional analysis of human patterned induced neurons (hpiNs)

We report that combining NGN2 programming with SMAD and WNT inhibition generates patterned induced neurons (hpiNs).Transcriptional analyses showed that hpiN cultures contained cells along a developmental continuumranging from poorly differentiated neuronal progenitors to well-differentiated, excitatory glutamatergic neurons. The most differentiated neurons could be identified using a CAMK2A::GFP reporter gene. Overall design: RNA sequencing analysis (population and single cell) over hpiNs differentiation time (D0 through D49 after induction). Two independent iPS lines, 9 time points, three replicates each.
