Abstract

Type 1 familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder due to variation of the melanocortin-2-receptor (MC2R) gene. Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line SDQLCHi029-A was successfully generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells obtained from a 5-day-old girl with MC2R mutations (c.428C > T and c.409C > T). The iPSC line showed genetically stable and matched the donor’s PBMCs. displayed a normal karyotype, expressed high pluripotent markers, and exhibited differentiation potential of three germ layers in vitro. The iPSC line could be a good model to study the pathogenesis of FGD type 1 and screen new drugs for the disease.
