摘要
The present inventors identified aggregation of embryonic stem cells andembryoid bodies (EBs) as the cause of the difficulty in generating largenumbers of the embryonic stem cells (ES) cell-derived tissues. To counterthis, the invention provides a novel bioprocess where aggregation of spheroid-forming cells, such as embryonic stem cells and spheroids, such as EBs iscontrolled, such as by encapsulation of within a matrix. As a result, EBs canbe generated with high efficiency and cultured in high cell density, well-mixed systems. Well-mixed conditions facilitate measurement and control of thebulk media conditions and allow for the use of scalable bioreactor systems forclinical production of tissue. Therefore, the invention enables generation ofES cell-derived tissue on a clinical scale. The invention is also applicableto any spheroid-forming cells and other types of pluripotent cells.
