Generation of a human induced pluripotent stem cell line from a hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patient carrying MYH6/c.611G>A mutation

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy and preserved or increased left ventricular ejection fraction, is the most common autosomal dominant inherited cardiovascular disease. We generated a human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) line derived from a HCM patient who carried a heterozygous missense mutation in the myosin heavy chain 6 (MYH6) gene. With a non-integrated Sendai viral method, the patient-specific hiPSCs were generated from skin fibroblasts. We confirmed the stemness of the hiPSCs and its capability of differentiating into three germ layers. Meanwhile, the generated hiPSCs showed human embryonic stem cell-like morphology and normal karyotype.
