Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line (IPSCi001-A), from a 40-year-old female patient with occult macular dystrophy carrying the c.133C > T mutation in the RP1L1 gene
Abstract
Occult macular dystrophy (OMD) is a hereditary macular disease characterized by no visible macular abnormalities. It is an autosomal dominant disease associated with retinitis pigmentosa 1 like 1 (RP1L1) gene mutation. c.133C > T mutation in the RP1L1 gene is the primary cause of severe visual impairment in OMD patients. The induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line was generated using the integration-free Sendai virus method from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of a vision-impaired patient harboring heterozygous RP1L1 c.133C > T mutation. This cell line may serve as a cellular model for studying the pathogenic mechanisms of OMD caused by RP1L1 mutation.
