This video demonstrates an assay to generate tumor antigen-specific induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived CD8αβ+ T Cells. Tumor antigen-specific iPSCs are grown on a stromal cell monolayer and differentiated into hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs). The HPCs are differentiated into CD4+ CD8+ double-positive T cells using a differentiation medium. These cells are then stimulated to generate single-positive T cells expressing CD8.
Protocol
1. Culturing Human iPSCs (hiPSCs) on Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts (MEF) NOTE: Alternative methods for culturing hiPSCs can also be used, including but not limited to seeding onto a 6-well plate pre-coated with gelatin, a gelatinous protein mixture, recombinant laminin 511, or any other extracellular matrix used in hiPSC expansion, and cultured using defined media specially formulated for human pluripotent stem cell culture. Culturing MEF</st…
