Mutations in the gene that encodes the nuclear envelope proteins lamin A/C (LMNA) are considered to be a prominent cause of Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a leading cause of heart failure and a prevalent indication for heart transplant. Here we described the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from a 53-year-old female with DCM plus progressive conduction disease who carry a heterozygous mutation in LMNA (c.1621C > T, p.R541C). PBMCs isolated from the patient were reprogrammed with Yamanaka factors KOS, KLF4, and c-MYC by the non-integrating sendai virus vector system. The obtained iPSC lines demonstrated normal karyotype and pluripotent identity.
编码核膜蛋白 lamin A/C(LMNA)的基因突变被认为是扩张型心肌病(DCM)的主要原因,DCM 是心力衰竭的主要原因,也是心脏移植的常见指征。在这里,我们描述了从一位 53 岁患有 DCM 合并进行性传导疾病的女性患者中生成诱导多能干细胞(iPSC)的过程,该患者携带 LMNA 中的杂合突变(c.1621C>T,p.R541C)。通过非整合性仙台病毒载体系统,用 Yamanaka 因子 KOS、KLF4 和 c-MYC 对患者的 PBMC 进行重编程。获得的 iPSC 系表现出正常的核型和多能性。
