Generation of induced pluripotent stem cell(iPSC)line CJUHi001-A derived peripheral blood mononuclear cells of spinocerebellar ataxia type 1(SCA1) the CAG repeat mutation in ATXN1 gene

Abstract

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by CAG repeat mutations in the ATXN1 gene. In this study, we generated an induced pluripotent stem cell line (iPSC) by using non-integrating Sendai virus (SeV) from peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs)of SCA1 patient harboring a CAG repeat mutation in the ATXN1 gene. The induced patient-specific iPSC line with a normal karyotype and expresses pluripotent markers, it also shows differentiation totipotency and tridermogenesis in vitro. It may be an excellent model for studying spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1) in vitro and will be beneficial for studying SCA1 pathogenesis and therapeutic intervention strategies.
