Generation of a human induced pluripotent stem cell line (MUSIi001-A) from caesarean section scar fibroblasts using Sendai viral vectors

Summary

We generated a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line from caesarean section scar fibroblasts of a 33-year-old healthy woman using transgene-free Sendai viral vectors under feeder-free condition. The established iPSC line, designated as MUSIi001-A, exhibited a normal karyotype, expressed pluripotent markers, differentiated into cells of three embryonic germ layers. Further analyses showed that the Sendai viral genome was absent at passage 25. The MUSIi001-A line can serve as a control for studying developmental biology and phenotypic comparison with disease-specific iPSCs. Copyright © 2018 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
