Abstract

Developing renewable human liver tissue from stem cells has been pursued as a potential source of biological material for pharmaceutical and clinical endeavors. At present, two-dimensional differentiation procedures deliver tissue lacking long-term phenotypic and functional stability. Efforts to overcome these limiting factors have led to the development of protocols to generate three-dimensional cellular aggregates. Here we describe a methodology to generate 3D hepatospheres from human pluripotent stem cells using defined and commercially available reagents.
