Generation of iPSC lines (KAIMRCi003A, KAIMRCi003B) from a Saudi patient with Dravet syndrome carrying homozygous mutation in the CPLX1 gene and heterozygous mutation in SCN9A
Summary
The most prevalent form of epileptic encephalopathy is Dravet syndrome (DRVT), which is triggered by the pathogenic variant SCN1A in 80% of cases. iPSCs with different SCN1A mutations have been constructed by several groups to model DRVT syndrome. However, no studies involving DRVT-iPSCs with rare genetic variants have been conducted. Here, we established two DRVT-iPSC lines harboring a homozygous mutation in the CPLX1 gene and heterozygous mutation in SCN9A gene. Therefore, the derivation of these iPSC lines provides a unique cellular platform to dissect the molecular mechanisms underlying the cellular dysfunctions consequent to CPLX1 and SCN9A mutations. © 2023.
