RESUMO
Late-onset Alzheimer disease (LOAD) is the most frequent neurodegenerative disease, and the APOE ε4 allele is the most prominent risk factor for LOAD. Four human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines MLUi007-J, MLUi008-B, MLUi009-A, and MLUi010-B were generated from LOAD patients and healthy matched donors by reprogramming of B-lymphoblastoid cells (B-LCLs) with episomal plasmids. The application of B-LCLs holds a great promise to model LOAD and other diseases because they can easily be generated from primary peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) by infection with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV).
