Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is a severe genetic disease caused by mutations in the ACVR1 gene for which there is currently no effective therapy. Therefore, obtaining iPSCs for further modeling and development of treatment methods, including gene therapy, can be very promising. The authors herein describe the generation of the induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSCs) line RCMGi014-A from urinary sediment cells of a patient with clinically expressed and genetically proven (ACVR1:c.6176G>A) FOP. These iPSCs proliferate in dense monolayer cell colonies, have a normal karyotype (46,XY), express pluripotency markers (OCT4, SOX2, TRA-1-60, SSEA-4), and show the ability to differentiate into three germ layers, which confirms their pluripotent status. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We generated two human induced pluripotency stem cell (hiPSC) lines, RCMGi011-A and 11-B, from skin fibroblast from patient with Mucopolysaccharidosis IV B type and autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss 12 using non-integrating, viral CytoTune™-iPS 2.0 Sendai Reprogramming Kit. We verified variant c.808 T > G and insertion in GLB1 gene, as well as two mutations, c.6992 T > C and c.805C > T, in CDH23 gene which lead to autosomal recessive hearing loss type 12. We have demonstrated normal karyotype of hiPSCs and capacity for cell differentiation into three germ layers., Competing Interests: Declaration of Competing Interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2023 The Authors.
