Microglia integration into midbrain organoids: Origin matters

Marloes Verkerke, Angélica María Sabogal-Guáqueta, Saloua Zekri, Anne‐Marie van Dam, Helga E. de Vries, Vanessa Donega

This study integrates postmortem PD microglia, iPSC-derived microglial progenitors, and iPSC-derived microglia into midbrain organoids, showing that postmortem microglia have higher infiltration capacity and better markers of maturity.

Comprehensive pathway analyses of schizophrenia risk loci point to dysfunctional postsynaptic signaling

Dick Schijven, Daniel Kofink, Vinicius Tragante, Marloes Verkerke, Sara L. Pulit, René S. Kahn, Jan Herman Veldink, Christiaan H. Vinkers, Marco P. Boks, Jurjen Justin Luykx

This study uses pathway analysis on schizophrenia GWAS data to identify enrichment in synaptic plasticity and neurotransmitter synapse gene sets, supporting a role for postsynaptic signaling in schizophrenia.
