Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a connective tissue disorder with pleiotropic manifestations in the ocular, skeletal and cardiovascular system; and is typically cause by pathogenic variants in the fibrillin-1 (FBN1) gene. We report a generated induced pluripotent cell (iPSC) line of a MFS patient with an FBN1 c.7754T > C (p.Ile2585Thr) variant. The cell line was generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and after reprogramming the line showed a no relevant copy number alterations, expression of pluripotency markers and was able to differentiate into three germ layers while carrying the original genotype.
