Overview
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.
