We have generated a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line under feeder-free culture conditions using the urine derived cells (UCs) collected from non-affected control subjects to use as a comparison group for the iPSC lines containing a Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 (PAI-1 homozygous/h...
