ABSTRACT
Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN) results from specific TTR gene mutations. In this study, we generated two induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines derived from ATTR-PN patients with heterozygous TTR gene mutations (Ala97Ser and Phe64Leu). These iPSC lines exhibited normal morphology, karyotype, high pluripotency marker expression, and differentiation into cells representing all germ layers. The generation of these iPSC lines serve as a valuable tool for investigating the mechanisms of ATTR-PN across various cell types and facilitating patient-specific in vitro amyloidosis modeling.
