It has become increasingly evident that astrocytes play a central role in many central nervous system pathologies, not only as regulators of defensive responses against brain insults but also as primary culprits of the disease onset and progression. This is particularly evident in some rare leukodystrophies (LDs) where white matter\/myelin deterioration is due to primary astrocyte dysfunctions. Understanding the molecular defects causing these LDs may help clarify astrocyte contribution to myelin formation\/maintenance and favor the identification of possible therapeutic targets for LDs and other CNS demyelinating diseases. To date, the pathogenic mechanisms of these LDs are poorly known due to the rarity of the pathological tissue and the failure of the animal models to fully recapitulate the human diseases. Thus, the development of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) from patient fibroblasts and their differentiation into astrocytes is a promising approach to overcome these issues. In this review, we discuss the primary role of astrocytes in LD pathogenesis, the experimental models currently available and the advantages, future evolutions, perspectives, and limitations of hiPSC to study pathologies implying astrocyte dysfunctions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms23010274","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,28]],"date-time":"2021-12-28T01:18:15Z","timestamp":1640654295000},"page":"274","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Human iPSC-Derived Astrocytes: A Powerful Tool to Study Primary Astrocyte Dysfunction in the Pathogenesis of Rare Leukodystrophies"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1615-1770","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Angela","family":"Lanciotti","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neuroscience, Istituto Superiore di Sanit\u00e0, 00169 Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria Stefania","family":"Brignone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neuroscience, Istituto Superiore di Sanit\u00e0, 00169 Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pompeo","family":"Macioce","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neuroscience, Istituto Superiore di Sanit\u00e0, 00169 Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sergio","family":"Visentin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Center for Research and Preclinical and Clinical Evaluation of Drugs, Istituto Superiore di Sanit\u00e0, 00169 Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elena","family":"Ambrosini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neuroscience, Istituto Superiore di Sanit\u00e0, 00169 Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3805","DOI":"10.1242\/dev.129304","article-title":"Glia in Mammalian Development and Disease","volume":"142","author":"Zuchero","year":"2015","journal-title":"Development"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"239","DOI":"10.1152\/physrev.00042.2016","article-title":"Physiology of Astroglia","volume":"98","author":"Verkhratsky","year":"2018","journal-title":"Physiol.
