Human spinal cord organoids recapitulate developmental and disease-associated oligodendrocyte lineage signatures

Taylor Pio, Meghna Bettaiah, Ruizi Zhao, Supriya S. Wariyar, Sabra Mouhi, Emily J. Hill, Steven A. Sloan, Zihui Ou, Ah Joung Rachel Yu, Charlotte Adams, Alexia Tyler King, Jimena Andersen

This study develops human spinal cord organoids and assembloids to model oligodendrocyte development and disease states, showing they recapitulate developmental signatures and cytokine-induced dysfunction seen in multiple sclerosis.
