Current Advances and Limitations in Modeling ALS/FTD in a Dish Using Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are two age-dependent multifactorial neurodegenerative disorders, which are typically characterized by the selective death of motor neurons and cerebral cortex neurons, respectively. These two diseases share many clinical, genetic...
