Abstract
APOE genotype is the strongest genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The low degree of homology between mouse and human APOE is a concerning issue in preclinical models currently used to study the role of this gene in AD pathophysiology. A key objective of ADAPTED (Alzheimer's Disease Apolipoprotein Pathology for Treatment Elucidation and Development) project was to generate in vitro models that better recapitulate human APOE biology. We describe a new set of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) lines carrying common APOE variants (Ɛ2, Ɛ3, and Ɛ3/Ɛ4) and a knock-out isogenic to the parental APOE Ɛ4/Ɛ4 line (UKBi011-A).
