Epidermal keratinocytes were reprogrammed using non-integrating Sendai virus vectors. The entire process of derivation and expansion of AD-iPSCs were performed under xeno-free culture conditions. Characterization of KCLi001-A line included molecular karyotyping, mutation screening using restriction enzyme digestion and Sanger sequencing, while pluripotency and differentiation potential were confirmed by expression of associated markers in vitro and by in vivo teratoma assay.
