Abstract excerpt
Familial Parkinson's disease (PD) can be caused by deleterious mutations in PINK1 (encoding PINK1) in an autosomal recessive manner. Functional studies suggest that PINK1 works as a regulator of mitochondrial homeostasis. However, how loss of PINK1 induces dopaminergic neuron degeneration is still unclear. Here, we have generated a patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line with mutant PINK1 (p....
