Abstract:
Glycogen storage disease type II (GSDII), or Pompe disease, is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder characterized by the deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA). GAA deficiency results in the progressive accumulation of glycogen in cardiac and skeletal muscle tissues, leading to cellular dysfunction and clinical manifestations, including muscle weakness, respiratory difficulties, and cardiomyopathy. In this study, we report the derivation of three induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of GSDII patients. These patient-derived iPSC lines can be used to study pathological features of the disease and evaluate therapeutic strategies for Pompe disease.
