Generation of human induced iPSC KUMi003-A from acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) M3

초록

Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) M3 is an acute myeloid leukemia (AML) subtype and is characterized by the chromosomal translocation t(15;17)(p22;q11), which results in the fusion of the promyelocytic gene (PML) at 15q22 with the retinoic acid alpha-receptor gene (RARA) at 17q21. We generated an induced pluripotent stem cell line "KUMi003-A " from an APL M3 patient that is pluripotent and can differentiate into the three germ layers. This iPSC line will be useful as a disease model to investigate disease mechanisms specific to APL M3.
