Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common heart disorder caused by genetic and non-genetic etiologies, characterized by left ventricular dilatation and contractile dysfunction. Here, we created a human induced pluripotent stem cell line from peripheral blood mononuclear cells using non-integrating vectors from a patient carrying a heterozygous LMNA variant (c.481G > A, p.Glu161Lys, NM_170707.4). The obtained EURACi015-A line, showed the typical morphology of pluripotent cells, normal karyotype and exhibited pluripotency markers and a trilineage differentiation potential. This cell line can be successfully differentiated into cardiomyocytes and endothelial cells. This line represents a human in vitro model to study the genetic basis of DCM.
扩张型心肌病(DCM)是一种由遗传和非遗传病因引起的常见心脏疾病,其特征为左心室扩张和收缩功能障碍。在这里,我们使用携带杂合性 LMNA 变体(c.481G>A,p.Glu161Lys,NM_170707.4)的患者的非整合载体,从外周血单核细胞中创建了一个人诱导多能干细胞系。获得的 EURACi015-A 系表现出多能细胞的典型形态、正常核型,并表现出多能性标记物和三系分化潜能。该细胞系可成功分化为心肌细胞和内皮细胞。该系代表了研究 DCM 遗传基础的人类体外模型。
