Huntington's disease (HD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with autosomal-dominant heritability that affect the central nervous system and peripheral tissues. The human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) lines were generated from dermal fibroblasts of patients without comorbidities, non-smokers, at the pre -manifest (IIMCBi004-A), early-manifest (IIMCBi005-A), and manifest (IIMCBi006-A) HD stage assessed by neurological tests, as well as from a healthy donor (IIMCBi003-A).

Characterization showed that the obtained hiPSC lines contained different CAG repeats consistent with the number of CAG repeats in original fi-broblasts. Moreover, hiPSCs expressed pluripotency markers and were able to differentiate into three-germ layers in vitro.
