Stress Resistance in Neurons From Primate Ips Cells

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) have properties similar to those of embryonic stem cells, but they can be derived from any type of somatic cell, such as a skin fibroblast. iPS cells can provide access to specialized cells, such as neurons, in species that otherwise would be unavailable for biomedical research. Among nonhuman primates, the chimpanzee occupies a unique position for comparative biology. Here we propose to use iPS cells from three primates: the chimpanzee, marmoset, and human.
