Generation of integration free hiPSCs clones, NSi001-A, NSi001-B, and NSi001-C from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of an individual with down syndrome having Robertsonian translocation.

Human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) clones NSi001-A, NSi001-B, and NSi001-C were generated from a female individual of Indian origin having Robertsonian translocation down syndrome (DS) by reprogramming peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) using integration-free Sendai viral vectors. The established hiPSCs clones had karyotype similar to the patient sample with Robertsonian translocation [46, XX rob (14;21)], normal ES-like morphology, expression of pluripotency markers, and potential for three germ layer differentiation, i.e., ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm.
