Abstract excerpt
Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by abnormal glutamine (Q) expansion in the huntingtin protein due to elongated CAG repeats in the gene HTT. We used non-integrative episomal plasmids to generate induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from three individuals affected by HD: CH1 (58Q), and two twin brothers CH3 (44Q) and CH4 (44Q). The iPSC lines exhibited one healthy HTT allele and...
