Using Endogenous MicroRNA Expression Patterns to Visualize Neural Differentiation of Human Pluripotent Stem Cells

Kirkeby, Agnete LU ; Parmar, Malin LU orcid and Jakobsson, Johan LU orcid (2011) p.465-480
Abstract
Many existing protocols for neuronal differentiation of human pluripotent cells result in heterogeneous cell populations and unsynchronized differentiation, necessitating the development of methods for labeling specific cell populations. Here we describe how microRNA-regulated lentiviral vectors can be used to visualize specific cell populations by exploiting endogenous microRNA expression patterns. This strategy provides a useful tool for visualization and identification of neural progeny derived from human pluripotent stem cells. We provide detailed protocols for lentiviral transduction, neural differentiation, and subsequent analysis of human embryonic stem cells.
