Short summary
In these studies induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) were generated from donors across the life span of the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) and were subjected to a directed neural differentiation protocol. Additionally chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) iPS cells were generated. Both aged marmoset iPS cells and chimpanzee iPS cells showed defects in their ability to differentiate. However, most of these defects were able to be overcome by a brief treatment with dimethyl sulfoxide.
