GlcNAc2-epimerase myopathy is a rare autosomal recessive myopathy characterized by distal involvement in the lower extremities. Our study reprogrammed human-induced pluripotent stem cells from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a patient with GNE gene deep intronic variant c.862 + 870C>T and c.478C>T compound heterozygous mutations that co-segregated with the disease. The generated iPSCs express pluripotent cell markers with no mycoplasma contamination. Additionally, these iPSCs demonstrated pluripotency, the capacity to differentiate into the three germ layers, and maintained normal karyotypes. Importantly, we identified that these iPSCs possess the same specific mutations as the patient, making them a robust model for studying GNE myopathy and developing potential therapeutic interventions.
