Clinical translation of novel human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-based therapies for
a wide range of diseases will require robust, scalable bioreactor technologies to
manufacturing large quantities of therapeutic cells. While mouse PSC yields in bioreactors
are comparable to traditional adherent culture (>50 fold expansion over 4 days), translation
of hPSCs to suspension yields only 3–6 fold expansion over 7 days. We hypothesize
that this discrepancy results from a cell state difference: mouse PSCs exist in an
earlier developmental “naïve” state which has enhanced bioprocessing properties relative
to the later “primed” state in which hPSCs exist.
