evidence that upon neuronal differentiation, complex I was
actively sequestered into PINK-Parkin-positive autophago-
somes and degraded. This represented the first example of tis-
sue-specific changes in respiratory activity due to mtDNA
mutation and highlighted the power of patient-specific iPSCs
for modeling mitochondrial diseases. A third report by KodairaTable 2. iPSC Models of Mitochondrial Diseases and Inborn Errors of Metabolism
