Coronary artery diseases are major problems of the world. Coronary artery disease patients frequently suffer from peptic ulcers when they receive aspirin treatment. For diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, the implementation of panendoscopy (PES) with biopsy is necessary. Some biopsy samples are wasted after the assay is completed. In the present study, we established a protocol for human gastric fibroblast isolation and induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) generation from gastric fibroblasts via PES with biopsy. We showed that these iPSCs can be differentiated into functional cardiomyocytes in vitro. To our knowledge, this is the first study to generate iPSCs from gastric fibroblasts in vitro.
