This study presents a fully optimized differentiation protocol of hiPSC-derived myeloid lineage cells and highlights their applications in research, drug screening, and cell therapies in functional verification.
Macrophages are pivotal effectors of host immunity and regulators of tissue homeostasis. Understanding of human macrophage biology has been hampered by the lack of reliable and scalable models for cellular and genetic studies. Human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived monocytes and macrophages, as an unlimited source of subject genotype-specific cells, will undoubtedly play an important role in advancing our understanding of macrophage biology and implication in human diseases. In this study, we present a fully optimized differentiation protocol of hiPSC-derived monocytes and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) or macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF). We present characterization of iPSC-derived myeloid lineage cells at phenotypic, functional, and transcriptomic levels, in comparison with corresponding subsets of peripheral blood-derived cells. We also highlight the application of hiPSC-derived monocytes and macrophages as a gene-editing platform for functional validation in research and drug screening, and the study also provides a reference for cell therapies.
