Generation and characterization of an iPS cell line (PUMCi006-A) from skin fibroblasts of a patient with an M239T mutation in PSEN2 gene.

Presenilin-2 (PSEN2) mutation is one of the pathogenic factors of autosomal dominant early-onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD). We generated a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line from fibroblasts of an EOAD patient carrying PSEN2 mutation (c.716 T > C) utilizing Sendai reprogramming kit. The resulting iPSC line carried patient-specific point mutation, exhibited typical iPSC morphology, retained a normal karyotype, expressed pluripotency markers, and could form embryoid bodies. Established iPSC line serve as valuable resource for EOAD disease pathogenesis modelling and drug screening.
