Deriving Schwann Cells from hPSCs Enables Disease Modeling and Drug Discovery for Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

Homa Majd, Sadaf Amin, Zaniar Ghazizadeh…·Faranak Fattahi

This study derives Schwann cells from human pluripotent stem cells to model diabetic peripheral neuropathy and identify a drug candidate that rescues sensory function and prevents myelin damage.
