Two iPSC clones, NCCSi008-A and NCCSi008-B, were generated from a healthy male individual of Indian origin by reprogramming his CD4 T cells with an integration free Sendai viral vector. The established iPSC clones showed high alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, expression of pluripotency markers, a normal male karyotype consistent with the donor gender (46, XY) and has potential for multi-lineage differentiation. These iPSC lines of Indian origin would serve as valuable resources for disease modeling, drug development and screening.

Generation and heterozygous repair of human iPSC lines from two individuals with the neurodevelopmental disorder, TRAPPC4 deficiency.

Stem Cell Res

December 2024

Murdoch Children's Research Institute, Parkville, Victoria, Australia; Department of Paediatrics, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Victoria, Australia. Electronic address:

A rare neurodevelopmental disorder has been linked to a well-conserved splice site variant in the TRAPPC4 gene (c.454 + 3A > G), which causes mis-splicing of TRAPPC4 transcripts and reduced levels of TRAPPC4 protein. Patients present with severe progressive neurological symptoms including seizures, microcephaly, intellectual disability and facial dysmorphism.

LINE-1-Induced Retrotransposition Affects Early Preimplantation Embryo DNA Integrity and Pluripotency.

Int J Mol Sci

November 2024

Laboratory of Medical Genetics and Human Reproduction, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, University of Ioannina, 451 10 Ioannina, Greece.

Retrotransposable elements are implicated in genome rearrangements and gene expression alterations that result in various human disorders. In the current study, we sought to investigate the potential effects of long interspersed elements-1 (LINE-1) overexpression on the integrity and methylation of DNA and on the expression of three major pluripotency factors (OCT4, SOX2, NANOG) during the preimplantation stages of human embryo development. Human MI oocytes were matured in vitro to MII and transfected through intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) either with an EGFP vector carrying a cloned active human LINE-1 retroelement or with the same EGFP vector without insert as control.

The mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) is an important source of inherited extranuclear variation. Clonal increases in mtDNA mutation heteroplasmy have been implicated in aging and disease, although the impact of this shift on cell function is challenging to assess. Reprogramming to pluripotency affects mtDNA mutation heteroplasmy.

Identification of ZNF850 as a novel CTG repeat expansion-related gene in myotonic dystrophy type 1 patient-derived iPSCs.

Hum Mol Genet

December 2024

Department of Peripheral Nervous System Research, National Institute of Neuroscience, National Center of Neurology and Psychiatry, 4-1-1, Ogawa-Higashi, Kodaira, Tokyo 187-8502, Japan.

Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a dominantly inherited multi-system disease caused by expanded CTG repeats in the 3' untranslated region of the dystrophia myotonica protein kinase (DMPK) gene. Similar to other repeat disorders, the expanded trinucleotide repeat is unstable and demonstrates a tendency to increase repeat size with age in affected tissues. DNA mismatch repair system is implicated in somatic instability.

Article Synopsis
  • Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) display clonal heterogeneity affecting their ability to differentiate into cardiomyocytes (CMs), necessitating a deeper understanding of these variations.
  • By analyzing multiple hiPSC clones from a single donor, researchers categorized them into productive (PC) and non-productive (NPC) groups based on their differentiation efficiency, uncovering distinct biological profiles.
  • Integrating RNA sequencing and chromatin accessibility data, the study identified biomarkers like TEK and SDR42E1 that are linked to CM differentiation potential, providing insights that could improve the selection of hiPSC clones for clinical use.
