“…Since the discovery of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in 1998 (Thomson et al, 1998) and hiPSCs in 2006 (Takahashi and Yamanaka, 2006), effective differentiation protocols for an increasing number of cell types have been reported (Karagiannis et al, 2019). A large number of studies, including from our own group, have highlighted the use of hiPSCs for the pathological modeling of muscular diseases of genetic origin (Tedesco et al, 2012;Tanaka et al, 2013;Shoji et al, 2015;Wu et al, 2017;El-Battrawy et al, 2018;Mateos-Aierdi et al, 2021;Mérien et al, 2021;Bruge et al, 2022). In this study, we first established a stable AGL knockout hiPSC line using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology (GSDIII CRISPR ).…”
