Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a heritable connective tissue disease caused by mutations in FBN1, encoding the extracellular matrix protein fibrillin-1. In this study, we generated human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from dermal fibroblasts of an MFS patient with the p. E2130K (c. 6388G > A) mutation. The generated hiPSC line had a normal karyotype, showed robust expression of pluripotency markers and was able to differentiate into all three germ layers in vivo. This cell line can provide a platform for understanding the pathogenic mechanisms of MFS related to FBN1 mutations. Resource table.
