“…Two main approaches are used to create iMph-based disease models: (i) generating iMphs from patient-derived iPSCs and (ii) introducing disease-associated mutations to iPSCs derived from healthy donors followed by the generation of iPSC-derived iMphs. The first approach has successfully been used to model Gaucher disease, Tangier disease, familial Mediterranean fever, chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), early onset sarcoidosis, Alzheimer disease, Parkinson disease, and others ( Panicker et al, 2012 ; Brault et al, 2014 ; Zhang et al, 2015 ; Aflaki et al, 2016 ; Haenseler et al, 2017 ; Takata et al, 2017 ; Brownjohn et al, 2018 ; Takada et al, 2018 ; Shiba et al, 2019 ; Mukhopadhyay et al, 2020 ). In the second approach, the introduction of p47-ΔGT mutation allowed to model CGD ( Klatt et al, 2019 ), and iMphs bearing genetic KOs of IL-10RA, IL-10RB, STAT1, or STAT3 modeled the very-early onset bowel disease (VEOBD) ( Mukhopadhyay et al, 2020 ; Sens et al, 2020 ).…”
