Generation of two iPSC lines from patients with inherited central core disease and concurrent malignant hyperthermia caused by dominant missense variants in the RYR1 gene

Summary

RYR1 variants are the most common genetic cause of congenital myopathies, and typically cause central core disease (CCD) and/or malignant hyperthermia (MH). Here, we generated iPSC lines from two patients with CCD and MH caused by dominant RYR1 variants within the central region of the protein (p.Val2168Met and p.Arg2508Cys). Both lines displayed typical iPSC morphology, uniform expression of pluripotency markers, trilineage differentiation potential, and had normal karyotypes. These are the first RYR1 iPSC lines from patients with both CCD and MH. As these are common CCD/MH variants, these lines should be useful to study these conditions and test therapeutics.
