Abstract Bioenergetic disturbances are a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases, in particular of Parkinson's disease (PD). This thesis concerns itself with a cohort of idiopathic PD patients and matched controls collected by the Bavarian ForiPS consortium. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and their neuronal derivatives were established and analyzed for their bioenergetic properties. Results shed new light on iPSCs as disease model system and bioenergetic deficiencies in Parkinson's disease and integrate well in existing research.
