Bulk RNA-seq of cerebral organoids investigating the role of CHD8 in cortical development
We used cerebral organoids generated from wildtype and CHD8 +/- human ES cells to study the effects of CHD8, one of the top ASD risk genes, on early cortical development. CHD8 +/- hESC were generated using the CRISPR/Cas9 system to create a deletion within the helicase domain. Cerebral organoids were generated according to the protocol from Lancaster et al 2013 with minor modifications.
