Abstract excerpt
The mechanism(s) causing selective vulnerability of dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson's disease (PD) remain largely elusive. To improve our understanding of mitochondrial involvement and related pathways suggested to play a role in this selective vulnerability, we used tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-mCherry reporter-induced pluripotent stem cells generated by CRISPR/Cas9. We sorted neurons into pure TH-positive and...
