Functional Pancreatic Progenitors generated as required. Our strategy also minimizes the potential for karyotypic drift in euploid hESC cultures,, as banked cells are only expanded for 36 passages over a 1520 day period before differentiation. It is notable that while theoretical considerations implicate population size as a risk factor in accumulating aneuploidies in hESC cultures, our conditions could support 10 Production of Functional Pancreatic Progenitors the expansion of euploid cells on a clinical-manufacturing scale. The simplicity of this expansion system for CyT49 is also likely to be amenable to automation. Aggregation of undifferentiated hESC in dynamic Ombitasvir rotational suspension culture is a unique methodology. Current examples of suspension culture of hESC use aggregates generated from collagenase passaging, shear of suspension clusters, in static culture conditions, require microcarrier support,,,, or heat shock in combination with the ROCK inhibitor Y27632 to support aggregation and survival. Such limitations add hurdles to maintaining cells in an undifferentiated state, the ability to scale and automate, or support effective population expansion in the face of passaging inefficiencies. Conversely, we have demonstrated that uniform clusters of undifferentiated hESC could be aggregated with high incorporation efficiencies in rotational culture, by taking advantage of the inherent self-associative properties of hESC. The PubMed ID:http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22189346 particular conditions we optimized were critical for effective aggregation, as the circular movement imposed a shallow central vortex drawing cells into a high local density in the middle of each well. The epithelial characteristics of undifferentiated hESC, presumably E-cadherin expression in particular, may mediate effective self-association of cells as they collide. Aggregates did not form efficiently in static suspension culture, rocked, or stirred cultures, or even in centrifuged cell pellets, indicating that fluid movement and limited shear forces played an important role in transitioning cell-cell contact into stable adhesion, a well characterized phenomenon. The ability to serially passage aggregates of euploid hESC in dynamic rotational culture suggests that future manufacturing processes may also utilize scaling of hESC cultures in such a format. The pairing of scaled expansion of CyT49 in adherent culture with aggregation and differentiation en masse is also a novel strategy. Effective step-wise lineage specification en route to pancreatic cell types was achieved by adapting our previous adherent-based system to dynamic suspension culture. This approach is essentially unrelated to traditional embryoid body differentiation, which is stochastic at best and not capable of directing uniform specification. Our strategy is also conceptually different from efforts to expand endoderm intermediates such as DE. In the present method, differentiation was directed in a highly controlled manner and resulted in consistency and uniformity of cellular composition superior to that we reported previously. In contrast to differentiation of hESC in adherent culture, which in our hands appears to be sensitive to variations in local densities, hESC aggregates by their very nature have high and uniform local cellular density, which may exert a positive influence on the uniformity of pancreatic differentiation. We demonstrated with our previous methods that multiple hESC lines could be differentiated to pancreatic lineages
