The β-amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a crucial pathogenic gene linked to Alzheimer's disease (AD). A human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line was generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from a female with APP gene mutation utilizing non-integrative Sendai virus. The iPSC line exhibits high expression of pluripotency markers, retains the APP mutation, displays a normal karyotype, and has the ability to differentiate into normal teratoma tissue. This iPSC line represents a valuable cell model for investigating the pathological mechanisms and therapeutic strategies of AD.
β-淀粉样前体蛋白(APP)是与阿尔茨海默病(AD)相关的关键致病基因。我们从一位携带 APP 基因突变的女性外周血单核细胞(PBMC)中利用非整合型仙台病毒生成了一个人诱导多能干细胞(iPSC)系。该 iPSC 系高表达多能性标志物,保留 APP 突变,具有正常核型,并能分化为正常畸胎瘤组织。该 iPSC 系是研究 AD 病理机制和治疗策略的有价值的细胞模型。
