Generation of a patient-specific iPSC cell line with cardiac arrhythmias and dilated cardiomyopathy (CBRCULi016-A), an isogenic control (CBRCULi016-A-1), and a paternal control (CBRCULi017-A).

ABSTRACT

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a prevalent cause of heart failure. We generated induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from a DCM patient carrying a mutation in the SCN5A gene, with his healthy father serving as a control. Notably, we employed CRISPR-Cas9 to rectify the mutation in the patient's iPSC line. The resulting iPSC lines expressed pluripotency markers, underwent differentiation into all three embryonic germ layers, maintained a normal karyotype, and lacked reprogramming viral vectors. These iPSC lines serve as a model for delving into the mechanisms of DCM and hold promise for the development of personalized therapeutic approaches.
