Abstract
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a clonal malignancy initiated by the occurrence of a t (9;22) translocation, generating Ph1 chromosome and BCR-ABL oncogene in a primitive hematopoietic stem cell (HSC). The resistance of HSC to targeted therapies using tyrosine kinase inhibitors remains a major obstacle towards the cure. We have generated an iPSC line from a patient with CML using leukemic CD34 + cells cryopreserved at diagnosis. Ph1 + CML cells were reprogrammed by non-integrative viral transduction. These iPSCs harboured Ph1 chromosome and expressed pluripotency hallmarks as well as BCR-ABL. Teratoma assays revealed normal differentiation after injection in immunodeficient mice.
