title: Generation of induced pluripotent stem cell line from foreskin fibroblasts.
abstract: Fibroblasts from the foreskin of a 6-year-old healthy boy was used to generate induced pluripotent stem cell line (ULEIi001-A) by lipotransfection with episomal vectors. Pluripotency and differentiation potential of the cell line was confirmed in vitro. Additionally hepatic differentiation potential of the cell line was investigated.
