Abstract excerpt
Marfan syndrome is a connective tissue disorder affecting the cardiovascular, skeletal, and ocular systems. Here, we generated and characterized induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines derived from two Marfan syndrome patients with mutations in the FBN1 gene (c.3333C > A and c.8854_8562delinsTATCAC). Both lines exhibited typical iPSC morphology, normal karyotype, undifferentiated states, and trilineage...
