Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell line (NCHi010-A) from a 6-year-old female with Down syndrome and without congenital heart disease

Down syndrome is a genetic anomaly that manifests when there is a mistake during cell division, resulting in an additional chromosome 21. Down syndrome can impact cognitive capabilities and physical development, giving rise to diverse developmental disparities and an elevated likelihood of certain health issues. The iPSC line NCHi010-A was generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a 6-year-old female with Down syndrome and without congenital heart disease using Sendai virus reprogramming. NCHi010-A displayed a morphology of pluripotent stem cells, expressed pluripotency markers, retained trisomy 21 karyotype, and demonstrated potential to differentiate into cells representative of the three germ layers.
