Deskripsi
Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disease caused by a mutation in the HTT gene. To generate human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs), we used dermal fibroblasts from 1 healthy adult control (K-Pic2), 1 HD manifest patient (M-T2), 1 healthy juvenile control (jK-N1), and 1 juvenile HD patient (jHD-V1). HD stage of patients was assessed by neurological tests and donors were without comorbidities and were non-smokers. Characterization showed that the obtained hiPSCs have the same number of CAG repeats as the parental fibroblast lines, express pluripotency markers and have the ability to differentiate into all 3 germ layers.
