Abstract excerpt
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder caused by interactions between genetic and environmental factors. Leucine rich repeat kinase (LRRK2) is the most prevalent mutation in autosomal-dominant inheritance of PD. Here, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a female patient with p.I2012T mutation in LRRK2 gene by using the...
