| Summary: | Prune belly syndrome (PBS) is a rare, multi-system congenital myopathy mainly affecting males, whose genetic basis is still being explored. Phenotypically, its morbidity spans from mild to lethal, and PBS cases manifest three cardinal pathological features: wrinkled, flaccid ventral abdominal wall with skeletal muscle deficiency, urinary tract dilation with poorly contractile smooth muscle, and intra-abdominal undescended testes. NCHi028-A is an iPSC line derived from skin fibroblasts of a 1-month-old male with PBS using Sendai Virus reprogramming factors. This iPSC line shows typical iPSC morphology, has normal karyotype, expresses undifferentiated hPSC state markers, and can be differentiated into three germ layers. |
