Hirschsprung diseаse (аkа cоngenital agangliоnic megacоlon) stems from a failure of enteric nervous system (ENS) innervation of the distal colon resulting in the inability to pass stool. Scientists studying this disease are interested in modeling the ENS in culture beginning with human iPSCs. Considering what we know about the developmental pathway leading to ENS cells, what cell type would the scientist need to first differentiate the iPSCs into prior to generating ENS cells?
