Netherton syndrome (NS) is a rare, autosomal recessive hereditary skin disease caused by mutations in SPINK5 gene, characterized with severe skin barrier damage. A human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line has been established with electroporation method from urine-derived cells of a NS patient carrying a compound heterozygous mutation c.2260A > T (p.K754X) and c.2423C > T(p.T808I) in SPINK5 gene. This iPSC line may serve as a valuable model for the research of pathogenesis of NS, and the mechanisms and therapeutics for skin barrier damage.
Netherton综合征（NS）是一种罕见的常染色体隐性遗传性皮肤病，由SPINK5基因突变引起，其特征是严重的皮肤屏障损伤。利用电穿孔法，从一名携带SPINK5基因复合杂合突变c.2260A>T（p.K754X）和c.2423C>T（p.T808I）的NS患者的尿液衍生细胞中建立了人诱导多能干细胞（iPSC）系。该iPSC系可作为研究NS发病机制以及皮肤屏障损伤的机制和治疗方法的宝贵模型。
