Product Advantages


  • Animal component-free conditions specifically designed for expansion and differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells

  • Optimized for use with StemSpan™ Erythroid Expansion Supplement

  • Produces thousands of CD71+GlyA+ erythroid cells per input CD34+ cell

Overview

StemSpan™-ACF Erythroid Expansion Medium (ACF-E) is an animal component-free (ACF) medium for the in vitro culture and expansion of human hematopoietic cells. When supplemented with StemSpan™ Erythroid Expansion Supplement (100X; Catalog #02692), this medium supports the expansion and erythroid differentiation of human hematopoietic progenitor cells into CD71+ and Glycophorin A+ erythroblasts in ACF culture conditions. This medium only contains recombinant proteins and synthetic components; it does not contain serum or other human- or animal-derived components.

Data Figures

Figure 1. Production of Erythroid Cells from Human CB-Derived CD34+ Cells Cultured in StemSpan™ Media Containing StemSpan™ Erythroid Expansion Supplement

(A) Average numbers of erythroid cells generated after culturing purified CD34+ CB cells (n = 5) for 14 days in StemSpan™ SFEM (black bars), SFEM II (grey bars), or StemSpan™-ACF Erythroid Expansion Medium (ACF-E, orange bars) media containing StemSpan™ Erythroid Expansion Supplement (Catalog #02692). Shown are the number of erythroid cells that express CD71 and/or Glycophorin A (GlyA) per input CD34+ cell. (B) The percentages of the different erythroid cell subsets generated in these cultures are shown, including CD71+GlyA+ erythroblasts, immature CD71+GlyA- erythroid progenitor cells and pro-erythroblasts, and CD71-/lowGlyA+ normoblasts. All three media supported the generation of thousands of erythroid cells per CB-derived CD34+ cell plated.

Table 1. Production of Erythroid Cells from Human CB-Derived CD34+ Cells Cultured in StemSpan™ Media Containing StemSpan™ Erythroid Expansion Supplement

Yields and percentages of erythroid cells produced after culturing purified CD34+ CB cells (n = 5) for 14 days in StemSpan™ SFEM, SFEM II or ACF-E media containing Erythroid Expansion Supplement. Erythroid cells were identified by flow cytometry after staining with antibodies against CD71 and GlyA. The % erythroid cells represent the percentage of cells that express CD71 and/or GlyA.
