Abstract
X-linked juvenile retinoschisis (XLRS) is one of the most severely affected genetic causes of irreversible retinal degeneration diseases in young males, especially school-age boys. Here, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from a Chinese 11-year-old male with clinically diagnosed XLRS. Urine sample was collected with appropriate cooperation, then isolated cells were expanded for subsequent reprogramming procedure using integration-free Sendai virus. The newly derived CSUASOi001-A iPS cell line harboring the c.304C > T mutation in the RS1 gene (p.R102W) provides a useful resource to investigate pathogenic mechanisms in XLRS.
