Generation of the induced pluripotent stem cell line ESi108-A from a familial atrial fibrillation patient

Summary

Tissue-specific cells differentiated from patient-derived human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) are a relevant cellular model to study several diseases. We obtained a hiPSC line from skin fibroblasts of a patient affected by familial atrial fibrillation by nucleofection of non-integrating episomal vectors. The resulting hiPSC line displays a normal karyotype, expresses pluripotency surface markers and pluripotency genes, and differentiates into cells of the 3 germ layers. Therefore, it represents a reliable model to study the disease in a physiologically relevant cellular environment. Copyright © 2023 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
