Generation of an iPS cell line via a non-integrative method using urine-derived cells from a patient with USH2A-associated retinitis pigmentosa

Publication date: May 2018 Source:Stem Cell Research, Volume 29 Author(s): Yonglong Guo, Qiaolang Zeng, Shiwei Liu, Quan Yu, Peiyuan Wang, Hongjie Ma, Shanshan Shi, Xin Yan, Zekai Cui, Mengyuan Xie, Yunxia Xue, Qingbing Zha, Zhijie Li, Jun Zhang, Shibo Tang, Jiansu Chen We have established an induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell line using urine-derived cells from a 27-year-old male patient with retinitis pigmentosa associated with point mutations in the USH2A gene. Feeder-free culture conditions and the integration-free CytoTune™-iPS 2.0 Sendai Reprogramming Kit were used.
