1、Mauritz Flk-1 progenitor cells from murine iPSCsSUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALSupplementary methodsCultivation of iPSCsThe iPSC clone B4 was routinely cultivated and expanded on mitotically inactivated murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). The culture medium was composed of Dulbeccos Modified Eagles Medium (
2、Invitrogen, Karlsruhe, Germany) supplemented with 15% FCS (Thermo Scientific, Bonn, Germany), 0.2mM L-glutamine (Invitrogen), 0.1mM bmercaptoethanol (Invitrogen), 0.1mM non-essential amino acid stock (Invitrogen), and 0.1% huLIF (human leukemia inhibitory factor) conditioned medium. The latter had b

Every three to four days colonies were detached with 0.2% collagenase IV (Invitrogen), dissociated into single cells with 0.025% trypsin (Sigma-Aldrich, Taufkirchen, Germany) and 0.1% chicke

The medium was supplemented with 1M inh

Teratoma assay of iPSCs2.5x105 viable iPSCs from the B4 clone were injected into lower limb skeletal muscle of SCID beige mice (n=4). Four weeks later tumours were dissected and paraffin sections were stained with haematoxylin and eo

All sections were analysed by an experienced pathologist with regard to teratoma formation.In vitro differentiation of iPSCsBefore starting differentiation iPSCs were cultivated for several passages without feeder cells to eliminate contaminating MEFs. Colonies were detached with 0.2% col

To initiate embryoid body (EB) formation in suspension iPSCs were cultured at 0.5x105 cells/ml in differentiation medium consisting of Iscoves Modified Dulbeccos Medium (Invitrogen) supplemented with 15% FCS, 0

For the formation of “hanging drop”-EBs 600 cells were aggregated per 20l of differentiation medium.On day 5 of differentiation EBs were either plated onto 0.1% gelatin-coated 6-well cul
9、ture dishes or were processed for fluorescent activated cell sorting (FACS). To study the potential of the iPSC clone B4 to differentiate into cardiovascular lineages, plated EBs were examined for the appearance of spontaneously beating areas. Cells were immunostained with antibodies against cardiac

Flow cytometry and cell sorting of iPSC-derived Flk-1 cellsOn days 3 to 6 of differentiation EBs were dissociated into single cells by incubation for 4min with 0.025% trypsin and 0.1% chicken serum. Cells were stained wi

On day 5 of differentiation cells we

Those populations were either directly used for quantitative real-time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) analyses or for intramyocardial injections or the

Two days later reaggregates were plated onto gelatin-coated 6-well culture dishes.Analysis of mRNA expression by qRT-PCRTotal RNA

Integrity of total RNA was controlled using an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, USA). Potentially contaminating genomic DNA was digested by DNAse I (Stratagene, La Jolla, CA, USA) for 15m

After precipitation, 300ng RNA was used for Oligo(dT)18-primed cDNA synthesis with RevertAidTM H Minus First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (Fermentas, St. Leon-Rot, Germany). qRT-PCR was performed using a Mastercycler ep realplex (Eppendorf, Hamburg, G

Real-time PCR conditions included enzyme activation at 95C for 15min, followed by 40 cycles (denaturation at 95C for 15sec, annealing at TA (for annealing temperatures of individual primer pairs (see Table S1) for 60sec and extension at 72C for 60sec,
