Generation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Amniotic Fluid Cells of a Fetus with Hb Bart's Disease.
Hemoglobin 2017 May
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from diseased patients behave as a powerful tool for biomedical research and may provide a source for replacement therapies. In this study, we generated iPSCs from amniotic fluid cells of a fetus with Hb Bart's (γ4) disease (- -/- -). The established iPSCs showed pluripotency similar to that of human embryonic stem cells. They were able to differentiate into various somatic cell types and maintained normal karyotypes after long periods of culture in vitro. The patient-specific iPSCs offer a valuable model for advancing α-thalassemia (α-thal) research and early treatment of the affected fetuses.
