摘要:
A method of producing a lens cell is disclosed. The method includes: an ES cell maintenance step of maintaining an ES cell by using a medium containing a fibroblast growth factor FGF-2 at a concentration of 2 ng/ml to 50 ng/ml; and a differentiation inducing step, carried out after the ES cell maintenance step, of inducing differentiation of the ES cell into a lens cell by implanting and culturing the ES cell on a mouse-skull-cell PA6 at a cell density of 2 colonies/cm2 to 6.5 colonies/cm2. In one embodiment, a washing step, carried out between the ES cell maintenance step and the differentiation inducing step, of washing the maintained ES cell once with an ES differentiation medium is included.

The present invention provides a clinically applicable method of inducing differentiation of embryonic stem cells, particularly a method of inducing differentiation of embryonic stem cells into forebrain neurons. More specifically, the present invention provides a method of inducing differentiation of embryonic stem cells, comprising culturing the embryonic stem cells as a floating aggregate in a serum-free medium, particularly a method of inducing differentiation of the embryonic stem cells into nervous system cells such as forebrain neurons and cerebellar neurons and sensory organ cells; a floating aggregate of embryonic stem cells obtained by culturing the embryonic stem cells as a floating aggregate in a serum-free medium; and cells derived from a floating aggregate of embryonic stem cells, particularly nervous system cells such as forebrain neurons and cerebellar neuron, sensory organ cells such as retinal precursor cells, and the like.

The present invention provides a clinically applicable method of inducing differentiation of the embryonic stem cells. Specifically, the present invention provides a method of culturing embryonic stem cells, which comprises culturing embryonic stem cells in the presence of an amnion-derived factor, a cell culture obtained by the culture method, and a culture agent/culture kit of embryonic stem cells comprising an amnion-derived factor. The present invention also provides a method of screening an amnion-derived factor having an activity useful for culturing embryonic stem cells with the activity as an index, and an amniocyte-derived factor obtained by the screening method. Furthermore, the present invention provides a method of preparing amniocytes useful for culturing embryonic stem cells, amniocytes obtained by the preparation method, and the like.

Stem cells such as embryonic stem cells (ES cells), including human ES cells, are cultured in a medium comprising a ROCK inhibitor, and a stem cell culture medium, optionally serum free, comprises a ROCK inhibitor.
摘要:
An Object of the present invention is to provide a process for producing a nerve cell by inducing differentiation of an embryonic stem cell, a method for inducing differentiation of the embryonic stem cell into a nerve cell, a medium to be used in the production process or differentiation induction method, or a method for improving purity of the nerve cell obtained by inducing differentiation of the embryonic stem cell. The present invention provides a process for producing a nerve cell which is applicable to treatment of neurodegenerative disease or the like easily, selectively or inexpensively by inducing differentiation induction of an embryonic stem cell using vitamin B12 or a salt thereof and heparin, a substance having heparin-like activity or a salt.

摘要:
A functional polypeptide designated "chordin" is described that is capable of inducing dorsal (and neural tissue) development in vertebrates, and which appears to be a secreted protein. There are substantial regions of conservation with Xenopus chordin with mouse chordin, and the human gene should also be similar in those regions. A full length Xenopus cDNA for chordin is illustrated by FIGS. 1A-1F, and contains a reading frame encoding a 941 residue, 105 kDa precursor protein.

The present invention enables efficient suspension culture of stem cells in a serum-free medium by comprising a step for quickly forming a homogenous aggregate of stem cells, and provides a method of selectively inducing the differentiation of nerves from a stem cell, a method of forming a cerebral cortical nerve network in vitro, and a method of producing a steric structure of a brain tissue in vitro, as well as a method of producing hypothalamic neuron progenitor cells, comprising culturing pluripotent stem cells as a suspended aggregate in a serum-free medium that substantially does not contain a Nodal signal promoter, a Wnt signal promoter, an FGF signal promoter, a BMP signal promoter, retinoic acid and an insulin, and isolating hypothalamic neuron progenitor cells from the culture.
