  • Differentiation Of Immunocytes Using Pluripotent Stem Cells
    Publication number: 20200131476
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for inducing the differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells or macrophages by using pluripotent stem cells, and a composition for inducing the differentiation. Specifically, the present invention relates to a composition for inducing the differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells comprising bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) in pluripotent stem cells, or a composition for inducing the differentiation of macrophages comprising BMP4 and a macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF), and a method for inducing the differentiation by using the compositions. The method for inducing the differentiation of the present invention is advantageous in that a differentiation method thereof is simple since only a few types of cytokine are used, and compared to conventional methods for inducing the differentiation, the efficiency of differentiation is improved tens of times or more and the yield of differentiated cells is high.
