Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is the causative molecule of the autosomal dominant hereditary form of Parkinson's disease (PD), PARK8, which was originally defined in a study of a Japanese family (the Sagamihara family) harboring the I2020T mutation in the kinase domain. Although a number of reported studies have focused on cell death mediated by mutant LRRK2, details of the pathogenetic effect of LRRK2 remain completely unknown. In the present study, to elucidate the mechanism of neurodegeneration in PD caused by LRRK2, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from dermal fibroblasts isolated from two PARK8 patients (LA and LB) in the Sagamihara family using retroviruses carrying Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc genes, as previously described. To evaluate the iPSCs lines established from the patient, we characterized their properties. All of the patient iPSCs lines demonstrated differentiation of all three germ layers spontaneously in vivo, and maintained a normal karyotype. We found that more than 80% of the differentiated cells were positive for βIII-tubulin (a neuron-specific marker). We also found that I2020T mutant LRRK2 iPSCs-derived neurons released less dopamine than control iPSCs-derived neurons. Furthermore, we demonstrated that patient iPSCs-derived neurons had a lower phospho-AKT1 level than control iPSCs-derived neurons, and that the former showed an increased incidence of apoptosis relative to the controls. These results suggest that I2020T LRRK2-iPSCs could be a promising new tool for reproducing the pathology of PD in the brain caused by the I2020T mutation, and applicable as a model in studies of targeted therapeutics.
