Stargardt disease, a progressive retinal disorder, is associated with bi-allelic variants in ABCA4. Employing the CRISPR/Cas9 approach, we generated isogenic control lines (RMCGENi005-A-1, RMCGENi018-A-1, RMCGENi017-A-1) for each of three induced pluripotent stem cell lines (RMCGENi005-A, RMCGENi018-A, RMCGENi017-A) derived from Stargardt patients carrying compound heterozygous ABCA4 variants. All of the generated lines showed pluripotent characteristics, no chromosomal aberrations and no indication of off-targets. The availability of these isogenic control lines will allow us to have a fair comparison between health and disease state within our studies on Stargardt disease.
斯特格德特病是一种进行性视网膜疾病,与 ABCA4 的双等位基因变异有关。我们采用 CRISPR/Cas9 方法,为每位来自携带 ABCA4 复合杂合变异的斯特格德特病患者的诱导多能干细胞系(RMCGENi005-A、RMCGENi018-A、RMCGENi017-A)生成了同源对照系(RMCGENi005-A-1、RMCGENi018-A-1、RMCGENi017-A-1)。所有生成的系均表现出多能特征,没有染色体异常,也没有脱靶的迹象。这些同源对照系的可用性将使我们能够在对斯特格德特病的研究中,在健康和疾病状态之间进行公平的比较。
