Generation and cardiac subtype-specific differentiation of PITX2-deficient human iPS cell lines for exploring familial atrial fibrillation

Loss-of-function mutations in the PITX2 transcription factor gene have been shown to cause familial atrial fibrillation (AF). To potentially model aspects of AF and unravel PITX2-regulated downstream genes for drug target discovery, we here report the generation of integration-free PITX2-deficient h...
