Generation and validation of APOE knockout human iPSC-derived cerebral organoids

Summary: Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is a major lipid carrier in the brain and closely associated with the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here, we describe a protocol for efficient knockout of APOE in human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) using the CRISPR-Cas9 system. We obtain ho...
