Generation of iPSC line from patient with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy carrying mutations in PKP2 gene

Summary

Human iPSC line was generated from patient-specific adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal multipotent stromal cells carrying two mutations in plakophilin-2 (PKP2) gene using non-integrative reprogramming method. Reprogramming factors OCT4, KLF4, SOX2, CMYC were delivered using Sendai viruses. Pluripotency was confirmed in vitro using immunofluorescence and RT-PCR analysis and in vivo by teratoma assay. The reported iPSC line could be useful tool for in vitro modeling of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy. Copyright © 2017 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
