Generation of integration-free Down syndrome and isogenic euploid human induced pluripotent stem cells
Abstract
A pair of Down syndrome (DS) human iPSCs (hiPSCs) and isogenic euploid hiPSCs generated by using an integration-free Sendai viral vector system showed trisomy 21 (47; XY) and typical (46; XY) karyotype respectively. Pluripotency of both hiPSC lines was confirmed by pluripotency marker expression and three germ layer differentiation potentials.
