Abstract

In this study, we established induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell lines from postmortem dura-derived fibroblasts of four control individuals with low polygenic risk score for psychiatric disorders including schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The fibroblasts were reprogrammed into iPS cells using episomal vectors carrying OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4, L-Myc, LIN28 and shRNA-p53. All iPS cell lines showed the same genotype with parental postmortem brain tissues, expressed pluripotency markers, and exhibited the differentiation potency into three embryonic germ layers.
