Step 1: iPSC/ESC maintainance
day 0 ~ 2
culture “adherent” human PSC in “E8” for “2” days. For ECM, use “vitronectin” at “1” “%”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table, and should be changed once in “2” days.
| concentration | unit | |
|---|---|---|
| Y27632 | 1.0e-5 | mol/l |
Step 2: mesoderm 1
day 2 ~ 4
culture “adherent” human PSC in “DMEM/F12” for “2” days. For ECM, use “vitronectin” at “1” “%”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table, and should be changed once in “2” days.
| concentration | unit | |
|---|---|---|
| knockout serum replacer | 20 | % |
| NEAA | 1 | x |
| GlutaMAX | 1 | x |
| 2-mercaptoethanol | 1.0e-4 | mol/l |
| Pen/strep | 1 | % |
Step 3: endothelial 1
day 4 ~ 6
culture “adherent” human PSC in “human endothelial serum-free medium” for “2” days. For ECM, use “vitronectin” at “1” “%”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table, and should be changed once in “2” days.
| concentration | unit | |
|---|---|---|
| human serum | 1 | % |
| Pen/strep | 1 | % |
| FGF | 2.0e-5 | g/l |
| retinoic acid | 1.0e-5 | mol/l |
Step 4: endothelial 2
day 6 ~ 14
culture “device” human PSC in “human endothelial serum-free medium” for “8” days. For ECM, use “ABM” at “N/A” “N/A”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table, and should be changed once in “8” days.
| concentration | unit | |
|---|---|---|
| Pen/strep | 1 | % |
| Y27632 | 1.0e-5 | mol/l |

Ideally, “EC” should express “PECAM1”, “CDH5”, “Glut1”, “VWF”, “MKI67”, “actin” at the end of culture.
