UOWi001-A

Reviewed by Australian Stem Cell Registry

Alternative Names: iPSC RB 9–8; RB 9-8; RB9-8; HC3

Details

Description

This induced pluripotent stem cell line was derived by using mRNA-based reprogramming to reprogram female dermal fibroblasts from a reportedly healthy donor. UOWi001-A is described as having a normal karyotype. Expression of OCT4, NANOG, SSEA-4 and TRA-1-60 in undifferentiated cells has been reported, as has trilineage differentiation in embryoid bodies, and differentiation to basal forebrain-like cholinergic neurons.

Tissue & Disease as reported

Biopsy Location
Ontology ID: fma7163
Label: Skin
Definition: Nonparenchymatous organ that consists of the epidermis, dermis and sets of hair and nails and which surrounds the entire body. Subdivisions of the skin surround various body parts; as a whole, the skin constitutes the external layer of the body. Examples: There is only one skin.

Induced Pluripotent Cell Derivation Details

Source Cell Type: CL:0000057
Label: fibroblast
Definition: A connective tissue cell which secretes an extracellular matrix rich in collagen and other macromolecules. Flattened and irregular in outline with branching processes; appear fusiform or spindle-shaped.

Source Cell Origin: UBERON:0002067
Label: dermis
Definition: The dermis is a layer of skin between the epidermis (with which it makes up the skin) and subcutaneous tissues, and is composed of two layers, the papillary and reticular dermis[WP].
