Staufen2 modulates the temporal dynamics of human neurogenesis in vitro

Akshay Jaya Ganesh, Sandra M. Fernández Moya, Ana Gutiérrez-Franco…·Mireya Plass

This study shows that STAU2 regulates human neurogenesis by affecting transcription factors, miRNA control, and progenitor maintenance, leading to changes in neural differentiation and organoid development.
