Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD) is a rare X-linked urea cycle disorder. Maternal OTCD can lead to life-threatening hyperammonemia if untreated. Here, we report the Generation of an iPSC line from a patient with OTCD carrying a deletion involving 3-9 exons of OTC gene using non-integrating plasmids expressing OCT4, SOX2, c-MYC, KLF4, and BCL-XL. The SDQLCHi036-A showed normal karyotype, pluripotent state, and potential to differentiate into three germ layers. Our approach offers a useful model to explore pathogenesis and therapy of OTCD.
鸟氨酸氨甲酰基转移酶缺乏症(OTCD)是一种罕见的 X 连锁尿素循环障碍。如果未经治疗,母体 OTCD 可导致危及生命的高氨血症。在这里,我们报告了使用表达 OCT4、SOX2、c-MYC、KLF4 和 BCL-XL 的非整合质粒,从携带涉及 OTC 基因 3-9 个外显子缺失的 OTCD 患者中生成 iPSC 系。SDQLCHi036-A 显示正常核型、多能状态和分化为三个胚层的潜力。我们的方法为探索 OTCD 的发病机制和治疗提供了一个有用的模型。
