Characterization of two iPSC lines from patients with maternally inherited leigh (MILS) and neuropathy, ataxia, and retinitis pigmentosa (NARP) syndrome carrying the MT-ATP6 m.8993 T>G mutation at different degrees of heteroplasmy.

Abstract excerpt

Human-derived experimental systems such as induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived models are useful tools to study mechanisms and potential therapeutic approaches for mitochondrial disorders. Here, we generated two iPSC lines from fibroblasts of patients carrying mutations at MT-ATP6 (m.8993 T>G). One patient with 96 % heteroplasmy suffered from Neuropathy, Ataxia, and Retinitis pigmentosa (NARP) syndrome,...
