Introduction: B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia is the most common childhood cancer and is characterized by specific genetic lesions. To date, there are no human cellular model systems that recapitulate the disease and may reveal the impact of different mutations. Thus, we aim to use directed differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) as a new model system. Method: To differentiate hiPSC into hematopoietic cells, we compared different methods: coculture with murine stromal cells, embryoid body formation, and monolayer cultures. Differentiation of hiPSC into CD34+ hemato-endotheli…
