Generation of two human induced pluripotent stem cell lines derived from myoblasts (MDCi014-A) and from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (MDCi014-B) from the same donor

Summary

We describe the generation and characterization of two human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSCs) lines reprogrammed from myoblasts and from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from the same donor. The donor was free of neuromuscular disorders, male and 18 years of age. For reprogramming we used Sendai-virus delivery of the four Yamanaka factors. The pluripotent identity of the hiPSC lines was confirmed by the expression of pluripotency markers and their capacity to differentiate into all three germ layers. These hiPSCs constitute a tool to study tissue of origin specific differences in the identity of hiPSCs. Copyright © 2020 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
