Generation of Induced Neural Stem Cells (iNSCs) from Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMNCs): A Sendai Virus-based Procedure to Reprogram PBMNCs into iNSCs
This video demonstrates the reprogramming of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNCs) into induced neural stem cells (iNSCs) using Sendai virus. Sendai virus is a non-integrating virus that offers an efficient and safe vehicle for reprogramming cells.
Protocol
1. Reprogramming of PBMNCs to iNSCs by SeV Infection Preparation of Solution and Culture Medium Prepare a poly-D-lysine (PDL) stock solution by dissolving 100 mg of PDL with 100 mL of H2O to a concentration of 1 mg/mL. Store at -20 °C in 1 mL aliquots. Prepare an insulin stock solution by dissolving 100 mg of insulin in 20 mL of 0.01 N HCl to a concentration of 5 mg/mL. Store at -20 °C in 1 mL aliquots. To prepare 200 mL …
