Generation of a human iPSC line from a Parkinson's disease patient with a novel CHCHD2 mutation (p.R145Q)

Abstract

Mutations in CHCHD2 have been reported to be associated with familial Parkinson's disease (PD). We generated a human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) line by reprogramming dermal fibroblasts from a PD patient harboring a novel CHCHD2 mutation (c.434G > A, p.R145Q). This line exhibited human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-like clonal morphology, expression of undifferentiated stem cell markers, a normal karyotype and trilineage differentiation capacity and thus the potential to serve as a model for further investigating the underlying molecular mechanisms of CHCHD2 function in PD. © 2024 The Authors
