Abstract

Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) hold great promise as a cell source for therapeutic applications and regenerative medicine. Traditionally, hiPSCs are expanded in two-dimensional static culture as colonies in the presence or absence of feeder cells. However, this expansion procedure is associated with lack of reproducibility and low cell yields. To fulfill the large cell number demand for clinical use, robust large-scale production of these cells under defined conditions is needed. Herein, we describe a scalable, low-cost protocol for expanding hiPSCs as aggregates in a lab-scale bioreactor.
