Abstract

X-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS) is a rare form of hereditary nephritis caused by mutations in the COL4A5 gene encoding the type IV collagen α5 chain. A skin biopsy was performed on one female patient with XLAS who carried a heterozygous p.G409S (c. 1225 G > A) mutation in the COL4A5 gene. A human-induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line was generated from dermal fibroblasts using the integrating free Sendai virus technique. The generated iPSC line SHCDNRi001-A offers an efficient resource to research pathogenic mechanisms in XLAS, as well as a cell-based disease model for drug testing or other treatments.
