<h4>Objective</h4>To develop a simple and efficient method for producing homogeneous populations of monocytes and macrophages from human embryonic stem cells (hES).<h4>Materials and methods</h4>Human embryonic stem cell lines KCL001, KCL002, and HUES-2 were differentiated into monocytes by coculture-free differentiation with two growth factors using a three-step method. The method involved embryoid body (EB) formation in hES media, directed differentiation with macrophage colony-stimulating fact ...[more]
