Abstract

Peripheral blood was extracted from a 65 year old Chinese female health donor. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) were reprogrammed with the 4 reprogramming factors: Klf-4, c-Myc, Oct-4, Sox-2, using sendai virus reprogramming protocol. The iPSC line showed pluripotency which was confirmed by immunofluorescent staining; the iPSC line was also able to form embryoid bodies in vitro and differentiate into the 3 germ layers in vivo. The iPSC line also showed normal karyotype. This healthy iPSC line can be served as healthy control for disease mechanism and disease modeling study.
