Generation of an integration-free induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line (ZZUNEUi005-A) from a Wilson's disease patient harboring a homozygous Pro992Leu mutation in ATP7B gene

Abstract

Using non-integrative reprogramming method, a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line, ZZUNEUi005-A, was generated from a 36-year-old male patient with Wilson’s disease, carrying a homozygous Pro992Leu mutation in the ATP7B gene. This cell line shows pluripotency both in vitro and in vivo and has a normal karyotype. Furthermore, we showed that this iPSC line could be differentiated into neural and hepatocyte-like cells.
