Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell line (KEIUi008-A) from a hearing loss patient with an A1555G mutation in mitochondrial DNA

We report the establishment of a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line from a 54-year-old male patient with an A1555G mutation in the mitochondrial 12S ribosomal RNA gene (MTRNR1), associated with sensorineural hearing loss. The established iPSC line expressed stemness markers or undiffere...

Description
Summary:We report the establishment of a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line from a 54-year-old male patient with an A1555G mutation in the mitochondrial 12S ribosomal RNA gene (MTRNR1), associated with sensorineural hearing loss. The established iPSC line expressed stemness markers or undifferentiated state markers. We also demonstrated the capacity of the cells to differentiate into the three germ layers, suggesting its pluripotency and utility in the pathological study of sensorineural hearing loss and drug screening for ear disorders.
