Abstract

A healthy 31-year-old Chinese Han female donated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Her PBMCs were reprogrammed with human OKSM (OCT3/4, KLF4 SOX2, and c-MYC) transcription factors by the non-integrating episomal vector system. Immunocytochemistry for pluripotency markers confirmed the pluripotency of transgene-free iPSCs. Their ability to differentiate spontaneously three germ layers in vitro is also confirmed. The iPSC line displayed a normal karyotype. This model can be used as a control in pathological mechanism studies.
