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.

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.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
