RESUMEN
Variations in PRKN or HTRA2 are associated with Parkinson's disease. We generated a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line CIBi007-A from a patient with young-onset Parkinson's disease (YOPD) who carried variants in PRKN and HTRA2. 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 disease mechanisms of YOPD and screening candidate drugs.
