Establishment of PLAFMCi005-A induced pluripotent stem cells derived from PBMC from a patient with renal cysts and diabetes syndrome
Abstract
Renal cysts and diabetes syndrome (RCAD) is caused by gene mutations in hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-β (HNF1B), but the underlying molecular mechanism is still unclear. This study established PLAFMCi005-A human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) by reprogramming peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from an RCAD patient. PLAFMCi005-A has differentiation potential and can be used to investigate the pathogenesis of RCAD caused by HNF1B gene mutations, thus promoting the development of related drugs.
