These abnormal proteins induce disturbance in mitochondrial dynamics and defect in autophagy system. Since presenilin-1 (PS1) is a core component in γ-secretase complex, the mutations of PS1 gene cause the interference of γ-secretase activity and lead to the increased Aβ42 secretion. We aimed to characterize the patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line carrying PS1-S170F mutation. Furthermore, we tested whether disease-modifying drug can reduce AD pathology in the AD iPSC-derived neurons. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mononuclear cells (MNCs) were isolated freshly from the peripheral blood of an autosomal dominant AD (ADAD) patient carrying presenilin-1 (PS1) mutation (Ser170Phe; PS1-S170F) and a cognitively normal control. We generated induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines, which were differentiated into functional coTau can be dramatically reduced by the treatment of LY-2886721, a BACE1 inhibitor. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, we have established and characterized the pathological features of an AD patient carrying PS1-S170F mutation using iPSC technology, which will be the first case on this mutation and this iPSC line will serve as a useful resource for studying AD pathogenesis and drug screening in the future. © 2020 The Authors.

Recently, a de novo arginine to cysteine (R311C) mutation in CaMKK2 was identified from a whole exome sequencing study of bipolar patients and their unaffected parents. The aim of the present study was to determine the functional consequences of the R311C mut
