Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells derived from hemogenic endothelial cells by episomal plasmid gene transfer
Embodiments herein relate to in vitro production methods of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) and hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) that have long-term multilineage hematopoiesis potentials upon in vivo engraftment. The HSC and HSPCs are derived from pluripotent stem cells-derived hemogenic endothelia cells (HE) by non-integrative episomal vectors-based gene transfer.
Production device, system, and method
To facilitate production of “regenerative medicine products” using a quality by design (QbD) approach. In one embodiment of the present invention, a production device which produces a medical product and analyzes a starting material and a central management device which determines processing conditions in the production device are provided separately. In addition, by transmitting and receiving data and the like pertaining to the starting material between the production device and central management device data, the medical product is produced while production conditions therefor are continuously optimized. Thus, it is easy to produce a medical product while reducing or eliminating effects from changes in cells and tissues over time, from oscillation during transport, and from changes in surrounding environment such as changes in temperature, and to produce the desired medical product even when there are individual differences in the starting material.
