Analysis of the effects of CHIR99021 on the early stages of definitive hematopoietic specification and HE development. (A,B) Schematic representation of two models of definitive progenitor development during hematopoietic hPSC differentiation in vitro. (C) Graph showing the pattern of APLNR and PDGFRα expression in the monolayer CHIR99021 induction differentiation system. (D) Representative flow cytometric analysis demonstrating kinetics of APLNR and PDGFRα expression of CHIR99021-induced and OP9-cocultured hPSCs at day 2 and day 3 of differentiation. (E) Graph comparing CFU-BL and CFU-MS potential of CHIR99021-induced versus OP-cocultured progenitors plated on day 2 and day 3 of differentiation. (F) Representative phase contrast images showing CFUs growing in semisolid medium; MS and BL developed after 3 days of OP9 coculture (left) and MS developed after 3 days in CHIR99021 conditions (right). (G) Graph showing the induction efficiency of CHIR99021-induced versus OP9-cocultured hPSCs as a percentage of CD31+ cells. All experiments were repeated at least three times; the error bars represent SEM. (H) Representative flow cytometric analysis showing the development of CD31+CD34+ and CD31+CD43+ progenitors in OP9 coculture conditions. (I) Representative flow cytometric analysis showing that all of the progenitors that develop in CHIR99021 induction conditions are CD31+CD34+ and lack the expression of CD43+.

Myeloid and erythroid CFU cell potential assessment of the progenitor cells derived by CHIR99021 induction. (A) Representative flow cytometric analysis showing that the progenitors that arise in CHIR99021 induction conditions are CD31+VE-cadherin (CD144)+ double-positive and develop a substantial CD73– HE fraction. (B) qRT-PCR of RUNX1 expression of progenitor cells at day 5 after CHIR99021 induction. Error bars represent SEM from four independent experiments. (C) Representative flow cytometric analysis of CD43 expression of progenitor cells at day 5 after CHIR99021 induction without (left) or with (right) the addition of VEGF. (D) Representative flow cytometric analysis of CD43 expression of CHIR99021-induced cells after OP9-DLL4 coculture. (E) Representative images of the myeloid hematopoietic colonies developed in semisolid medium after brief OP9-DLL4 coculture. Top: Phase contrast images of colony morphology. Bottom: Corresponding cytospin images (Wright stain). (F) Graph representing relative proportions of the different types of colonies after 16 days in semisolid medium. The graph represents the mean of at least 5 independent experiments. (G) Representative flow cytometric analysis of CD43 and CD235 expression of CHIR99021-derived progenitors after coculture with OP9-DLL4. (H) Graph representing relative proportions of CFU-E and BFU-E that developed in semisolid medium after using the OP coculture (left) or CHIR99021 induction (right) method. The graph represents the mean of at least three independent experiments.
