RESUMEN
Filamin C (FLNC) is a highly important actin crosslinker and multi-adaptor protein in striated skeletal and cardiac muscle. Mutations have been linked to a range of cardiomyopathy types. Here, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) from a patient with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) harboring a new, unique heterozygous FLNC mutation p.R2187P. From this patient-specific iPSC line, a corresponding isogenic control line was created by CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing. Both, the patient-specific and isogenic-control iPSC maintained full pluripotency, genomic integrity, and in vitro differentiation capacity. All iPSC lines differentiate into iPSC-cardiomyocytes, hence providing the possibility to study the pathogenesis of FLNC-mediated DCM further.
