  • Patent number: 12053465
    Abstract: Potassium chloride cotransporter-2 (KCC2) plays a critical role in brain function, and deficiency in KCC2 has been linked to neurological diseases, psychiatric disorders, and central nervous system injuries. In particular, Rett syndrome (RTT), a severe neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutations in the X-linked gene Methyl CpG binding Protein 2 (MECP2), has been linked to deficits in KCC2. The disclosure reports the use of CRISPR/Cas9 genome-editing technology to generate stem cell-derived, genetically defined KCC2 reporter human neurons for large-scale compound screening. This screening platform has been utilized to identify a number of small molecule compounds that are capable of enhancing KCC2 expression in both wild-type and RTT neurons, as well as organotypical brain slices cultured from wild-type mice.
