Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), a single-gene-inherited kidney disease, is a common cause of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). The PKD1 gene mutation is the most common cause of ADPKD, accounting for approximately 78% of cases. ADPKD is characterized by the scattered distribution of multiple cysts in the renal parenchyma, ultimately leading to ESKD. We collected peripheral blood mononuclear cells from a patient with ADPKD who carries a heterozygous PKD1 mutation and reprogrammed them into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). iPSC lines can provide a valuable resource for studying the pathogenesis of ADPKD and for drug screening purposes.
