Abstract (original English)
Background Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) such as embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) have the capacity of self-renewal and multilineage differentiation in vitro . Conventional hPSCs, which are in a primed state, can produce various types of differentiated cells. However, the variability in their degree of pluripotency and differentiation propensities, which is influenced by the inductive methods and culture conditions, limit their availability. Therefore, PSCs in a naïve state are a promising source of PSCs. Methods We recently developed a culture system for naïve hPSCs using an inhibitor of the NOTCH signaling pathway and a histone H3 methyltransferase disruptor. This culture system requires feeder cells for stably maintaining the naïve hPSCs. We aimed to develop a culture system for hPSCs that could maintain pluripotency under feeder-free conditions. Results We used two inhibitors to develop an alternative feeder-free culture system to obtain naïve hPSCs. The naïve cells underwent stable cellular proliferation and were positive for naïve stem cell markers; in addition, they could differentiate into the three germ layers. These feeder-free dome-shaped induced pluripotent stem cells (FFDS-iPSCs) have characteristics similar to that of naïve-like PSCs. Conclusions The naive hPSCs under feeder-free conditions could ensure supply of cells f
