Abstract

Novel and complementary experimental models are required for investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying the resistance to the available therapies of patients with major depression (Treatment-Resistant Depression, TRD) that occurs in at least one third of patients and need to be deeply investigated. Here, we have established a patient-specific disease model for TRD by reprogramming peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from two TRD patients into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), using non-integrating Sendai virus. These lines show the typical morphology of pluripotent cells, express pluripotency markers and displayed in vitro differentiation potential toward cells of the three embryonic germ layers.
