| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We aimed to provide in vitro disease models of genetic muscular disorders using patient-derived induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. We established patient-derived iPS cell lines from 9 Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients and 3 Pompe disease patients. We conducted neuronal, cardiac muscular, and skeletal muscular differentiation of the cells to compare in vitro characteristics to those from wild-type iPS cells. Based on the results, we are now developing drug-screening platforms.
