  • Patent number: 11505785
    Abstract: Provided is a cell culture method comprising the step of culturing cells using a medium containing a laminin fragment having integrin binding activity, the method not comprising the step of coating a culture vessel with a laminin or a laminin fragment before seeding the cells in the culture vessel. The cell culture method of the present invention uses a smaller amount of a laminin fragment and still achieves a comparable culture efficiency as compared with the conventional cell culture method that uses a culture vessel precoated with a laminin or a laminin fragment.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 8, 2016
    Date of Patent: November 22, 2022
    Assignee: Kyoto University
    Inventors: Hirofumi Suemori, Takamichi Miyazaki

  • Patent number: 8877493
    Abstract: The present invention provides a culture substrate which enables maintenance culture of human pluripotent stem cells in a pluripotent state under a feeder-free culture environment, and a culture method of human pluripotent stem cells using the culture substrate. By seeding human pluripotent stem cells dissociated into single cells at a cell density of 4×104 to 10×104 cells/cm2 onto a culture substrate coated with human laminin ?5?1?1 E8 fragment or human laminin ?3?3?2 E8 fragment preferably at a concentration of 0.5 to 25 ?g/cm2, the human pluripotent stem cells can be rapidly expanded in a pluripotent state.
