Step 1: iPSC/ESC maintainance

day 0 ~ 2

culture “adherent” mouse ESC in “DMEM/F12” for “2” days. For ECM, use “Gelatin” at “0.1” “%”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table, and should be changed once in “2” days.

concentrationunit
LIF2.0e+6U/l
BMP41.0e-5g/l

Step 2: Primitive streak 1

day 2 ~ 4

culture “spheroid” mouse ESC in “IMDM” for “2” days. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table, and should be changed once in “2” days.

concentrationunit
Ham’s F-1225%

Step 3: Primitive streak 2

day 4 ~ 5 (duration missing in database; assumed 1 day)

culture “spheroid” mouse ESC in “IMDM”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table.

concentrationunit
Ham’s F-1225%
Activin A5.0e-6g/l
VEGF5.0e-6g/l
BMP41.0e-7g/l

Step 4: mesoderm 1

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

culture “spheroid” mouse ESC in “DMEM”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table.

concentrationunit
FBS15%
Glutamine0.002mol/l
2-mercaptoethanol1.0e-4mol/l
NEAA1.0e-4mol/l
sodium pyruvate0.001mol/l
D-glucose4.5g/l
PSA1%

Ideally, “mesoderm” should express “EOMES”, “MESP1” at the end of culture.

Step 5: mesoderm 2

day 6 ~ 7 (duration missing in database; assumed 1 day)

culture “adherent” mouse ESC in “StemPro-34 medium”. For ECM, use “Gelatin” at “0.1” “%”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table.

concentrationunit
Glutamine0.002mol/l
Ascorbic Acid0.05g/l
VEGF5.0e-6g/l
FGF1.0e-5g/l
FGF102.5e-5g/l

Ideally, “CP” should express “Nkx2-5” at the end of culture.

Step 6: endothelial 1

day 7 ~ 8 (duration missing in database; assumed 1 day)

culture “adherent” mouse ESC in “unspecified medium”. “ESC” should be “downregulated” for “Lmna”, “upregulated” for “GATA4”. For ECM, use “Gelatin” at “0.1” “%”.

Ideally, “EC” should express “PECAM1”, “KDR” at the end of culture.

Step 7: endothelial 2

day 8 ~ 9 (duration missing in database; assumed 1 day)

culture “adherent” mouse ESC in “unspecified medium”. For ECM, use “Gelatin” at “0.1” “%”.

Ideally, “EC” should express “PECAM1”, “KDR” at the end of culture.
