Abstract excerpt
Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a maternally inherited optic neuropathy caused by mutations in mitochondrial DNA. To facilitate disease modeling and the investigation of pathogenetic mechanisms, we generated an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line, SNUi001-A, derived from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of a patient carrying the m.11778G>A mutation in the MT-ND4 gene. The iPSCs...
