Abstract—The technology for producing human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and the possibility of directed differentiation into specialized cells of all body tissues have opened unique opportunities for studying the molecular genetic basis of the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases in vitro and effective screening for compounds with neuroprotective activity. The aim of this work was to obtain glial cell cultures from iPSCs of a healthy donor and a patient with the familial form of Parkinson’s disease (G2019S mutation in the LRRK2) and to characterize them. At the first stage, we compared the three previously described protocols for the differentiation of glial cells from neural precursors of human iPSCs and selected the method most acceptable under our conditions in terms of the quality and time necessary for obtaining the desired cultures. Glial cell cultures obtained by this method were characterized by the levels of expression of a number of neuroglial differentiation genes. Also, in the resulting cultures, we analyzed the expression of genes of some neurotrophic factors (GDNF, BDNF, NGF, NT3). It was shown that the culture medium conditioned by glial cells from a patient with Parkinson’s disease had a negative effect on the growth of neurites of dopaminergic neurons in differentiated cultures of a healthy donor, decreasing their length by a factor of 2.
