CHCHD2 mutations have been reported to cause Parkinson's disease (PD) by a loss of function in mitochondria. Most reported mutations, however, were missense, which was not the perfect model for a study of haploinsufficiency. Here, a truncated mutation, CHCHD2 p.Pro53Alafs*38, was identified in one familial early-onset PD patient. We generated a human-induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line WCHSCUi001-A from this patient. The generated iPSCs resembled human embryonic stem cells, expressed pluripotency markers, exhibited a normal karyotype and could be differentiated into three germ layers in vitro. This line will be valuable for investigating the disease mechanisms and screening candidate drugs.
CHCHD2 突变通过在线粒体中丧失功能而被报道会导致帕金森病(PD)。然而,大多数报道的突变都是错义突变,这对于研究半合子不足并不是一个完美的模型。在这里,在一位家族性早发性 PD 患者中发现了截断突变 CHCHD2 p.Pro53Alafs*38。我们从该患者中生成了一个人类诱导多能干细胞(iPSC)系 WCHSCUi001-A。生成的 iPSCs 类似于人类胚胎干细胞,表达多能性标记物,具有正常的核型,并可在体外分化为三个胚层。该细胞系对于研究疾病机制和筛选候选药物将非常有价值。
