ioGABAergic Neurons APP V717I/V717I

Human iPSC-derived Alzheimer's disease model

ioGABAergic Neurons APP V717I/V717I are opti-ox deterministically programmed GABAergic neurons carrying a genetically engineered homozygous V7171 (London) mutation in the APP gene encoding the amyloid precursor protein. This mutation is linked to familial early-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD).

These cells offer a functional, rapidly maturing, and disease relevant system to study the role of the APP V717I (London) mutation in early-onset AD, alongside a genetically matched wild-type control.

Confidently investigate your phenotype of interest across multiple clones with our disease model clone panel. Detailed characterisation data (below) and bulk RNA sequencing data (upon request) help you select specific clones if required.

Benchtop benefits

comparison_0

Make True Comparisons

Pair the ioDisease Model Cells with the genetically matched wild-type ioGABAergic Neurons to directly investigate the effect of the mutant APP protein on early-onset AD.

pure_0

Highly pure

>99% of cells express key GABAergic markers within 4 days post-thaw, allowing consistent and reproducible results from every vial.

culture_0

Co-culture compatible

Suitable for co-culture and tri-culture studies with ioGlutamatergic Neurons and astrocytes.

Technical data

Highly characterised and defined

Disease model cells express key GABAergic neuron-specific markers comparably to the isogenic control

ioGABA APP V717I Hom ICC panel FINAL compressed

Immunofluorescent staining on day 12 post-revival demonstrates similar homogenous expression of the pan-neuronal marker, MAP2 and GABAergic neuron-specific marker, GABA in both disease model clones compared to the wild-type (WT) isogenic control. 100X magnification.

Disease model cells form structural neuronal networks by day 12

ioGABA APP V717I Hom Morphology panel

Both disease model clones mature rapidly and form structural neuronal networks over 12 days, with neurons identified by day 3 and visible neuronal networks being observed by day 10 post-thaw, similarly to the WT isogenic control. Day 1 to 12 post thawing; 100X magnification. 

Disease model cells demonstrate gene expression of neuronal and GABAergic-specific markers following deterministic programming

ioGABA APP V717I Hom RT-qPCR

Gene expression analysis demonstrates that both disease model clones and the WT isogenic control lack the expression of pluripotency markers (NANOG and OCT4) at day 12 post-thaw, whilst robustly expressing pan-neuronal (TUBB3) and GABAergic-specific markers, GAD1, GAD2, VGAT, DLX1, and DLX2. Gene expression levels were assessed by RT-qPCR (data expressed relative to the parental hiPSC control (iPSC Control), normalised to GAPDH). Data represents day 12 post-revival samples.

Cells arrive ready to plate

bit.bio_ioGABAergic Neurons_timeline_horizontal_withoutdox

ioGABAergic Neurons APP V717I/V717I are delivered in a cryopreserved format and are programmed to rapidly mature upon revival in the recommended media. The protocol for the generation of these cells is a two-phase process: Induction, which is carried out at bit.bio, Stabilisation for 3 days (Phase 1), and Maintenance (Phase 2) during which the ioGABAergic Neurons mature. Phases 1 and 2 after revival of cells are carried out at the customer site.
