Step 1: iPSC/ESC maintainance

day 0 ~ 1 (duration missing in database; assumed 1 day)

culture “adherent” human PSC in “mTeSR”. For ECM, use “Geltrex” at “N/A” “N/A”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table.

concentrationunit
EDTA0.02%

Ideally, “PSC” should be obtained at the end of culture.

Step 2: endothelial 1

day 1 ~ 5

culture “spheroid” human PSC in “RPMI medium” for “4” days. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table, and should be changed once in “4” days.

VEGF——
B27 Plus——

Step 3: endothelial 2

day 5 ~ 6 (duration missing in database; assumed 1 day)

culture “adherent” human PSC in “EGM2”. For ECM, use “Collagen” at “N/A” “N/A”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table.

concentrationunit
VEGF——

Ideally, “EC” should be obtained at the end of culture.
