Functional Studies of Missense TREM2 Mutations in Human Stem Cell-Derived Microglia

Summary: The derivation of microglia from human stem cells provides systems for understanding microglial biology and enables functional studies of disease-causing mutations. We describe a robust method for the derivation of human microglia from stem cells, which are phenotypically and functionally c...
