Generation of a human iPSC line (MPIi006-A) from a patient with Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease

Summary

We established a human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) line (MPIi006-A) from fibroblasts of a 20-year-old male Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (PMD) patient with a hemizygous 643C>T mutation in proteolipid protein 1 (PLP1) gene using a retroviral delivery of OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC. The MPIi006-A iPSC line carried the mutation, displayed typical iPSC morphology, expressed pluripotent stem cell makers, exhibited normal karyotype and were capable of differentiating into cells representative of three germ layers.
