Abstract

Autism is a heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder defined by deficits in socialization, communication, and patterns of behavior. Using stem cells to model brain disorders may yield new understanding about the underlying neuropathological processes and could prove essential for drug development. We present here a new human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line (SDUKIi004-A) generated from skin fibroblasts derived from a 21-year old male patient diagnosed with Pervasive Developmental Disorder-Not Otherwise Specified (PDD-NOS) (“FYNEN-cohort”). Reprogramming of the fibroblasts was accomplished using integration-free episomal plasmids. Characterization validated the expression of pluripotency markers, differentiation into the three germ layers, and absence of chromosomal abnormalities.
