Abstract

Cross-species comparisons studying primate pluripotent stem cells and their derivatives are crucial to better understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms behind human disease and development. Within this context, Baboons (Papio anubis) have emerged as a prominent primate model for such investigations. Herein, we reprogrammed skin fibroblasts of one male individual and generated two induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines, which exhibit the characteristic ESC-like morphology, demonstrated robust expression of key pluripotency factors and displayed multilineage differentiation potential. Notably, both iPSC lines can be cultured under feeder-free conditions in commercially available medium, enhancing their value for cross-species comparisons.
