Abstract excerpt
Skin fibroblasts were obtained from a male patient diagnosed with retinoblastoma (RB) carrying a c.2663G>A mutation in the 25 exon of RB1 gene. RB-iPS cells was generated via delivered four reprogramming factors (OCT4, SOX2, NANOG and LIN28) into these skin fibroblasts. The RB-iPS cells retained the RB1 heterozygous mutation resulted in a truncated RB1 mRNA. Characteristic tests proved that the iPSC line...
