Enhanced derivation of human pluripotent stem cell-derived cortical glutamatergic neurons by a small molecule

Abstract Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) play important role in studying the function of human glutamatergic neurons and related disease pathogenesis. However, the current hPSC-derived cortical system produced a significant number of inhibitory GABAergic neurons that reduced the purity of excit...
