Methods

Neural precursor culture and viral transduction

  • To differentiate NPs to neurons, NPs were plated on polyornithine and laminin coated plates in NP media and grown until they reached 70% confluence.
  • FGF was removed and NP media supplemented with 20 ng/ml BDNF , 20 ng/ml GDNF and 0.5 mM dibutyryl cAMP (N6,2′-O-Dibutyryladenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate sodium salt).
  • Medium was exchanged every 2–3 days.

Monolayer neuronal differentiation

  • iPSC cultures were dissociated with Accutase to generate single-cell suspensions, then differentially plated on gelatin-coated plasticware for 1 h in medium'>hESC medium in the presence of ROCK inhibitor (Y27632, Ascent) to remove SNL feeders.
  • The nonattached cells were resuspended in MEF-CM (&systems) with 10 ng ml−1 FGF2 and plated on growth-factor reduced Matrigel (B) at a density of 25,000 cells cm−2 and allowed to propagate in self-renewal conditions for 72 h or until 70–90% confluent, whereupon media was changed to KS medium containing 50 ng ml−1 Noggin , 10 μM −1 SHH C24II and 50 ng ml−1 Wnt1 for the second day onwards.
  • kk1 blocking antibody (100 ng ml−1& ) was also added for the second day only.

  • After 5 days, medium'>medium'>KSR medium'>medium containing these ligands was cross-tapered with medium'>N2B27 medium'>medium (Cells) containing the same ligands over 7 days (75% medium'>medium'>KSR and 25% medium'>N2B27 first day, 50% of each third day, and 25% medium'>medium'>KSR with 75% medium'>N2B27 fifth day).
  • Once established in N2B27 conditions, Wnt1, Noggin, SB431542 and −1 BDNF , 0.2 mM ascorbic acid and 100 ng ml−1 FGF8 were added.
  • Three days later, cells were dissociated with Hank's buffered saline solution for 1 h at room temperature, and lifted mechanically, then replated en bloc on to poly-l-ornithine/laminin-coated plasticware.
  • Neuronal maturation ensued with BDNF and ascorbic acid as before, supplemented with 10 ng ml−1 GDNF , 1 ng ml−1 TGFβ3 and 0.5 mM dibutyryl-cAMP for the next 7 days.
  • After a total of 23–31 days, the resulting neuronal cultures were analysed by immunocytochemistry, qPCR and western blot.

Differentiation of smNPCs

  • For generation of more ventral CNS neurons, including mDANs, medium'>smNPC expansion medium was changed 2 days after splitting to N2B27 medium with 100 ng/mL FGF8 , 1 µM PMA, and 200 µM AA.
