Abstract excerpt
Christianson syndrome (CS), an X-linked neurological disorder characterized by postnatal attenuation of brain growth (postnatal microcephaly), is caused by mutations in SLC9A6, the gene encoding endosomal Na+/H+ exchanger 6 (NHE6). To hasten treatment development, we established induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from patients with CS representing a mutational spectrum, as well as biologically related and...
