Immunocytochemistry of cultured human Medium Spiny Neurons (MSNs)
This protocol describes the immunolabelling of one or several protein targets on PFA-fixed cell culture on glass coverslips.
Differentiation of human cortical neurons (CNs) from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and their coculture with rat astrocytes
This protocol described the production of human cortical neurons from induced pluripotent stem cells in cocultured with commercially available rat astrocytes.
Differentiation of human medium spiny neurons (MSNs) from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)
This protocol generates human medium spiny neurons (MSNs) from induced human pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs).
Quantification of Extracellular ?-synuclein Assay
This protocol uses a classical ELISA experimental design with sensitive electrochemical detection to provide measure of ?-synuclein concentration in the conditioned media of cultured iPSC-derived human cells.
Whole-cell Patch-Clamp Recordings from Striatal Cholinergic Interneurons in ex vivo Mouse Brain Slices
Protocol for patch-clamp recording of mCherry-labelled striatal ChIs from mouse brain slices with added step for labelling astrocytes using SR101.
