Generation of megakaryocytic progenitors from human embryonic stem cells in a feeder- and serum-free medium.
BACKGROUND: The production of human platelets from embryonic stem cells in a defined culture system is a prerequisite for the generation of platelets for therapeutic use. As an important step towards this goal, we report the differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) towards the megakaryo...
