Generation of the iPSC line FINi002-A from a male Parkinson’s disease patient carrying compound heterozygous mutations in the PRKN gene

Generation of the iPSC line FINi002-A from a male Parkinson’s disease patient carrying compound heterozygous mutations in the PRKN gene. Primary fibroblasts from a skin biopsy of a male PD patient were reprogrammed using transiently present…

The pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease

This review is the second in a Series of three papers about Parkinson’s disease published in the Lancet. Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative condition associated with the deposition of aggregated α-synuclein. Insights…

Free floating immunofluorescence protocol on mouse brain sections for tau pathology

This protocol describes the process of immunofluorescently labelling tau and phospho-tau in athymic mouse brains that have been grafted with human-disease derived iPSC's. This protocol can be adapted for other tissue types and antibody pairings.

Preparation of human iPSC-derived cortical neuronal progenitors for transplantation into the rodent brain

This protocol describes how we prepare human iPSC-derived cells, that have been differentiated into cortical neuronal progenitors, for transplantation into the brain of immunocompromised athymic mice. Neuronal progenitors mature within the mouse…

Dopamine and cortical iPSC-derived neurons with different Parkinsonian mutations show variation in lysosomal and mitochondrial dysfunction: implications for protein deposition versus selective cell loss

Comparison of dopamine neurons identified lysosomal and mitochondrial dysfunction, as well as increased tau deposition, alpha-synuclein phosphorylation and decreased glucocerebrosidase activity.
