Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome-2 is a rare neurological disorder characterized by sensory neuronopathy and pontobulbar palsy, caused by variations in SLC52A2 and SLC52A3 genes, encoding the riboflavin transporters. By reprogramming with SOX2, KLF4, c-MYC and OCT3/4, we generated an iPSC cell line from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) collected from a three-year-old Chinese female individual to be used as a disease model. By fully examination, the resulting iPSCs expressed pluripotency-associated stem cell markers, maintained the normal karyotype and proliferative potential for three-germ layer differentiation.
