HESC lines HES3 and HUES8 and the hiPSC line hCBiPSC251 (link) were cultivated as described earlier4 (link),27 ,30 (link). Briefly, all hPSCs were cultured as colonies on cell culture plastic coated with hESC-qualified Matrigel (Corning, Amsterdam, Netherlands). As cultivation medium mTeSR1 (Stem Cell Technologies, Cologne, Germany) or StemMACS™ iPS-Brew XF (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) was used. Passaging was performed every 5–7 days using a non-enzymatic solution52 (link) or Dispase (5 U/mL) in a ratio of 1:6 up to 1:40 onto Matrigel-coated 6-well plates.
