Generation of Isogenic iPSC Lines for Studying the Effect of the p.N515del (c.1543_1545delAAC) Variant on MYBPC3 Function and Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Pathogenesis.

The clinical significance of numerous cardiovascular gene variants remains to be determined. CRISPR/Cas9 allows for the introduction and/or correction of a certain variant in induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). The resulting isogenic iPSC lines can be differentiated into cardiomyocytes and used as a platform to assess the pathogenicity of the variant.

Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell line, ICGi029-A, by reprogramming peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a patient suffering from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and carrying a heterozygous p.N515del mutation in MYBPC3.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common cardiovascular disease. However, effective methods of its therapy have not been developed so far. To date patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes are supposed to be a useful tool for studying HCM molecular mechanisms and to help find new approaches to HCM therapy.

Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell line, ICGi028-A, by reprogramming peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a patient suffering from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and carrying a heterozygous p.E510Q mutation in HADHA.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a frequent cardiovascular pathology caused by a huge number of mutations in sarcomere-associated proteins. This genetic diversity leads to differences in pathogenetic mechanisms and hampers HCM therapy. Cardiomyocytes derived from patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells give new opportunities for studying underlying HCM mechanisms.

Generation of two clonal iPSC lines, ICGi019-A and ICGi019-B, by reprogramming peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a patient suffering from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and carrying a heterozygous p.M659I mutation in MYH7.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is one of the most frequent cardiovascular diseases but no methods to prevent its progression have been developed. Cardiomyocytes derived from patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells can become a platform to study pathogenesis of the disease and to search for more effective therapy methods. We generated two iPSC lines from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of an HCM patient with heterozygous p.
