Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell line (ZSPHARi002-A) from a patient with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease carrying a heterozygous PKD1 mutation by Yeye Zhang, Ye Chen, Jun Fan, Guangzhao Lu, Qianzhou Lv, Donghui Lao, Xiaoyu Li

“…ADPKD is characterized by the scattered distribution of multiple cysts in the renal parenchyma, ultimately leading to ESKD. We collected peripheral blood mononuclear cells from a patient with ADPKD who carries a heterozygous PKD1 mutation and reprogrammed them into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). iPSC lines can provide a valuable resource for studying the pathogenesis of ADPKD and for drug screening purposes.…”
