Establishment of induced pluripotent stem cell line (GSPHi001-A) from a 6-year old female with nephrotic syndrome
Abstract
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were collected from a 6-year-old female child who was clinically diagnosed as primary nephrotic syndrome (NS) with hormone resistance. An iPSC line was successfully established by the Sendai-virus (SeV) delivery system. The iPS-19 (GSPHi001-A) expressed pluripotent markers, exhibited a normal karyotype and differentiated towards three germ layers. The iPSC line might offer a potentially useful tool for investigating mechanisms of primary NS, drug testing and gene therapy studies.
