  abstract  = {Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is characterized by fibro-fatty replacement of the myocardium, heart failure and life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. Causal mutations were identified in genes encoding for proteins of the desmosomes, predominantly plakophilin-2 (PKP2) and desmoglein-2 (DSG2). We generated gene-edited knock-out iPSC lines for PKP2 (JMUi001-A-2) and DSG2 (JMUi001-A-3) using the CRISPR/Cas9 system in a healthy control iPSC background (JMUi001A). Stem cell-like morphology, robust expression of pluripotency markers, embryoid body formation and normal karyotypes confirmed the generation of high quality iPSCs to provide a novel isogenic human in vitro model system mimicking ACM when differentiated into cardiomyocytes.},

  abstract  = {Fibroblasts isolated from a skin biopsy of a healthy 46-year-old female were infected with Sendai virus containing the Yamanaka factors to produce transgene-free human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). CRISPR/Cas9 was used to generate isogenic cell lines with a gene dose-dependent deficiency of CDH13, a risk gene associated with neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders. Thereby, a heterozygous CDH13 knockout (CDH13\(^{+/-}\)) and a CDH13 null mutant (CDH13\(^{-/-}\)) iPSC line was obtained. All three lines showed expression of pluripotency-associated markers, the ability to differentiate into cells of the three germ layers in vitro, and a normal female karyotype.},
