Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare and complex connective tissue disease associated with high morbidity and mortality. SSc is characterized by ischemic vasculopathy, cutaneous and visceral fibrosis and a dysimmune state (Denton and Khanna, 2017; Volkmann et al., 2023; Barnes and Mayes, 2012). We have derived induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from two SSc patients aged 38 and 67 years with severe vascular phenotype. These iPSC lines expressed pluripotent markers, exhibited normal and stable genome, and differentiated into trilineage embryonic layers in teratoma formation assays. These SSc-specific iPSC lines can be differentiated into endothelial cells, providing a valuable model to elucidate vascular dysfunction and develop personalized therapeutic approaches.
系统性硬化症(SSc)是一种罕见且复杂的结缔组织疾病,其发病率和死亡率都很高。SSc的特征是缺血性血管病变、皮肤和内脏纤维化以及免疫失调状态(丹顿和坎纳,2017年;福尔克曼等人,2023年;巴恩斯和梅斯,2012年)。我们从两名患有严重血管表型的38岁和67岁SSc患者中获得了诱导多能干细胞(iPSC)系。这些iPSC系表达多能性标志物,具有正常且稳定的基因组,并在畸胎瘤形成试验中分化为三胚层胚胎层。这些SSc特异性iPSC系可分化为内皮细胞,为阐明血管功能障碍和开发个性化治疗方法提供了有价值的模型。
