1 33513753 Using peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of these two affected family members and two normal (BRCA1+/+) individuals, we established a number of iPSC clones via non-integrating Sendai virus-based delivery of the four OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, and c-MYC factors.
2 33513753 In transcriptome analyses, BRCA1+/- iMSCs exhibited a unique pro-angiogenic signature: compared to non-mutated iMSCs, they expressed high levels of HIF-1α, angiogenic factors belonging to the VEGF, PDGF, and ANGPT subfamilies showing high angiogenic potential.
3 33513753 We also reported a highly increased migration capacity of BRCA1+/- iMSCs through an in vitro wound healing assay that correlated with the upregulation of the periostin (POSTN).
