Abstract
Recurrent hydatidiform mole (RHM) is characterized by the occurrence of at least twice hydatidiform mole. Unlike sporadic complete hydatidiform moles (CHMs), which are androgenetic with 2 paternal chromosomes, CHMs associated with familial recurrence are genetically biparental with a maternal and a paternal chromosome. NLRP7 mutations have been reported in 55% of RHM cases. Here, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from a patent with NLRP7 gene mutation c.1261C > T by reprogramming peripheral blood mononuclear cells by non-integrated method. The resulting iPSCs carrying NLRP7 mutation, had normal karyotype, expressed pluripotency markers, and could differentiate into three germ layersin vivo.
