Establishment of human induced pluripotent stem cell line from dermal fibroblasts of a healthy individual

Summary

Human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are used to establish patient-specific cell lines and organs which are ideal models to mirror the pathological features of diseases in vitro and also, investigate the underlying mechanisms. It is essential to generate wild-type hiPSCs lines to optimize differentiation protocol and be also used, possibly, for cell therapy. In this study, hiPSCs were generated from the dermal fibroblasts of a 78-year-old healthy female individual using the non-genetic-integrated Sendai virus protocol, and characterized using standard validated methods.
