“…To obtain neural stem cells (NSCs) for subsequent differentiation into neuronal and glial lineages, hiPSCs were cultured in DMEM/F12 (Gibco, Waltham, MA, USA) supplemented with N-2 (to 1X, Gibco, Waltham, MA, USA), 2 mM L-glutamine (PanEco, Moscow, Russia), 100 mg/L penicillin-streptomycin (PanEco, Moscow, Russia), 10 µM SB431542 (Stemcell Technologies, Vancouver, BC, Canada), 2 µM dorsomorphin (Stemcell Technologies, Vancouver, BC, Canada) and 200 nM LDN193189 (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) [ 48 ]. To obtain NPCs, NSCs were cultured for 2 weeks in DMEM/F12 (PanEco, Moscow, Russia) supplemented with B-27 (to 1X, Gibco, Waltham, MA, USA), 2 mM L-glutamine, 100 mg/L penicillin-streptomycin, 10 ng/mL FGF-2 (ProSpec, Ness-Ziona, Israel) and 1 µM purmorphamine (Stemcell Technologies, Vancouver, BC, Canada) [ 49 ]. To obtain GPCs, NSCs were cultured in a DMEM/F12-based growth medium supplemented with N-2, 2 mM L-glutamine, 100 mg/L penicillin-streptomycin and 1% fetal bovine serum (PanEco, Moscow, Russia).…”
