Generation of two induced pluripotent stem cell lines from blood cells of a prostate cancer patient carrying germline mutation in CHEK2.

Abstract excerpt

Germline mutations of CHEK2 have been reported in various types of disease including breast cancer, ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer and prostate cancer. We generated two iPSC lines ZNHi001-A and ZNHi001-B from a prostate cancer patient carrying germline mutation in CHEK2 (c.667C＞T, also p.R223C) which may increase the risk of prostate cancer. Pluripotency and multi-lineage differentiation capacity of the two...
