iPSC-Derived Neural Cells Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) represent a significant breakthrough in biology, paving the way for new trends in scientific research and medical applications. These cells, which possess self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation capabilities similar to embryonic stem cells, can be generated by reprogramming somatic cells (such as skin or blood cells). This not only sidesteps the ethical issues surrounding embryonic stem cells but also opens new avenues for personalized medicine and scientific research, demonstrating vast potential in drug screening, disease modeling, and cell replacement therapies.
Based on the latest advancements in cell reprogramming and neural differentiation technologies, we have successfully developed a series of neural cell products derived from iPSCs, including neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and dopamine neurons (DNs). These products closely mimic the cellular characteristics and functions of the human central nervous system (CNS), providing accurate in vitro models for studying neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s disease (PD), while also showing significant potential in drug screening and neural regeneration.
NPCs are crucial precursor cells in the CNS with the ability to proliferate and differentiate into various neuronal and glial cell types. They play a key role in neurodevelopment, injury repair, and neural regeneration.
Cat. No. | Product Description | Donor Status |
---|---|---|
CIPC-NWC001 | Human iPSC-Derived Neural Progenitor Cells | Healthy |
CIPC-NDC001 | Human iPSC-Derived Neural Progenitor Cells (Parkinson's disease) | Parkinson's disease |
Human iPSC-Derived Neural Progenitor Cells (Cat. No. CIPC-NWC001) have been identified through immunofluorescence staining to express well-known NPC markers such as Nestin, SOX2 and PAX6.
Human iPSC-Derived Neural Progenitor Cells (Cat. No. CIPC-NWC001) have been identified through flow cytometry to express well-known NPC markers such as SOX1 and PAX6.
DNs synthesize and release the neurotransmitter dopamine, playing essential roles in motor control, reward mechanisms, and emotional regulation. The gradual loss of DNs in the substantia nigra is closely linked to neurodegenerative diseases like PD. iPSC-Derived DNs provide an ideal cell model for studying these conditions.

CIPC-DWC001 | Human iPSC-Derived Dopamine Neurons | Healthy |
CIPC-DDC001 | Human iPSC-Derived Dopamine Neurons (Parkinson's disease) | Parkinson's disease |
Human iPSC-Derived Neural Progenitor Cells (Cat. No. CIPC-NWC001) have the ability to differentiate into dopamine neurons (Cat. No. CIPC-DWC001).
This data set highlights the intrinsic activity of our Human iPSC-Derived Dopamine Neurons (Cat. No. CIPC-DDC001) cultured on an MEA plate. The neurons exhibit robust spontaneous firing, as visualized in the accompanying heatmap video. The raster plot clearly shows regular network burst firing patterns, indicative of well-coordinated neuronal activity. The photo of the neurons on the MEA plate further confirms the successful culture and network formation, making this data a powerful demonstration of their functional connectivity and suitability for neurophysiological studies.
This data set demonstrates the dose-dependent effects of Haloperidol on neuronal firing. Raster plots and associated firing parameters (for Weighted Mean Firing Rate, Number of Bursts, Burst Duration, Burst Frequency, and Number of Network Bursts, n = 2) are presented for varying Haloperidol concentrations. At 0.1 μM, the firing activity is enhanced, while at 1 μM, the activity diminishes. At 10 μM, the firing is nearly abolished. These results are consistent with findings from Yokoi et al. (2019), where Haloperidol is known to inhibit D2 receptors at low doses and 5-HT2 receptors at high doses (Tyler et al., 2017). This confirms that the relevant receptors in our Human iPSC-Derived Dopamine Neurons (Cat. No. CIPC-DDC001) are functioning normally, underscoring their utility in drug screening and neurotoxicity studies.
