Description
Non-neuronal cell types such as astrocytes can contribute to Parkinson's disease (PD) pathology. The G2019S mutation in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is one of the most common known causes of familial PD. To characterize its effect on astrocytes, we developed a protocol to produce midbrain-patterned astrocytes from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from PD LRRK2 G2019S patients and healthy controls. In order to understand the effect of this mutation on astrocyte function, we compared the gene expression profiles of iPSC-derived midbrain-patterned astrocytes from PD patients with those from healthy controls. Overall design: Bulk RNA-Seq profiles of human iPSC-derived midbrain-patterned astrocytes from 7 donors, including 4 patients with Parkinson's disease who carry the LRRK2 G2019S mutation, and 3 healthy control individuals
