Poster – Urine sample-derived human induced pluripotent stem cells as a model to study PCSK9-mediated autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia

Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) are becoming a relevant model for the study of liver metabolic diseases once differentiated into hepatocyte-like cells (HLC), and it has been shown that they can faithfully recapitulate autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia (ADH). PCSK9 is a critical modulator of cholesterol homeostasis, and quickly became a Read more…
