Generation of a human induced pluripotent stem cell line (HMGUi002-A) from a healthy male individual

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can be used to generate different somatic cell types in vitro, including insulin-producing pancreatic β-cells. Here, we have generated iPSCs from a healthy male individual using an episomal reprogramming method. The resulting iPSCs are integration-free, have a normal karyotype and are pluripotent in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, we show that this iPSC line can be differentiated into pancreatic lineage...
