Downregulation of Neurodevelopmental Gene Expression in iPSC-Derived Cerebral Organoids Upon Infection by Human Cytomegalovirus
We report the application of bulk RNA sequencing on cerebral organoids infected with HCMV TB40eGFP virus or uninfected, within the infected groups the organoids were sorted into 3 distinct populations prior to sequencing based on GFP expression as a proxy for level of infection. These populations have been denoted GFP (+), GFP Inter, GFP (-), for each sorted population 3 organoids of the same line and from the same differentiation were combined to ensure sufficient cell numbers for bulk sequencing analysis. Overall design: Examination of the effect of HCMV virus on iPSC derived cerebral organoids.
