Research Abstract |
To obtain appropriate donor cells for transplantation, we differentiated oligodendrocyte (OL) lineage cells from mouse iPS cells. iPS cell-derived oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPC) were induced effectively under serum free condition by 7-step culture method. Then we removed SSEA-1 (+) cells with MACS to prevent teratoma formation, resulting in 97% reduction. Physiological low oxygen promoted OPC proliferation with no effects for cell differentiation in vitro. iPS-derived OPCs survived in immature rat brain after transplantation, suggesting these cells are suitable for donor cells.
