Establishment of an induced pluripotent stem cell line (ZZUPMCi001-A) derived from peripheral blood mononuclear cells in a patient with type 1 Waardenburg syndrome

Summary

Waardenburg syndrome type I (WS1) is a human autosomal dominant genetic disease characterized by sensorineural hearing loss, pigmentary abnormalities, and dystopia canthorum. In this study, we generated an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line using non-integrative Sendai viral reprogramming technology from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of a 29-year-old woman affected with WS1, caused by a heterozygous frameshift mutation in the PAX3 (NM_181459.4:c.123del). This iPSC line carrying the same mutation displays a nomal karyotype, expresses pluripotent markers, and shows differentiation capacity in vitro. Copyright © 2021 The Authors.
