Beta-propeller Protein-Associated Neurodegeneration (BPAN) is a rare X-linked dominant disorder (ORPHA:329284) characterized by brain iron accumulation, developmental delay, seizures, motor dysfunction, and progressive neurodegeneration. It results from pathogenic variants inWDR45, encoding WDR45/WIPI4, a key autophagy protein. No curative treatment exists; management is supportive. As BPAN pathogenesis remains unclear, research aims to elucidate its molecular mechanisms and develop targeted therapies. We generated and characterized two induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from BPAN patient fibroblasts, providing essential models for studying disease mechanisms and developing effective therapeutic strategies.
