As the most common cause of heart failure, dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is characterized by dilated ventricles and weakened contractile force. Mutations in the calcium handling protein phospholamban (PLN) are known to cause inherited DCM. Here, we introduced a PLN-R9C mutation in a healthy control induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line using CRISPR/Cas9. The genome-edited iPSC line showed typical pluripotent cell morphology, robust expression of pluripotency markers, normal karyotype, and the ...[more]
