A human induced pluripotent stem cell model from a patient with hereditary cerebral small vessel disease carrying a heterozygous R302Q mutation in HTRA1.

ABSTRACT: Cerebral autosomal recessive arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CARASIL) is an inherited cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) caused by biallelic mutations in the high-temperature requirement serine peptidase A1 (HTRA1) gene. Even heterozygous mutations in HTRA1 are recently revealed to cause cardinal clinical features of CSVD. Here, we report the first establishment of a human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) line from a patient with heterozygous HTRA1-related CSVD. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were reprogrammed by the transfection of episomal vectors encoding human OCT3/4 (POU5F1), SOX2, KLF4, L-MYC, LIN28, and a murine dominant-negative mutant of p53 (mp53DD). The established iPSCs had normal morphology as human pluripotent stem cells and
