“…In addition, culture volume inevitably becomes large, since there are numerous nonadherent cells such as hematopoietic cells that must be diluted and removed by washing and changes in medium, resulting in low-density culture of MSCs. Under such low-density culture conditions, MSCs do not proliferate immediately, and require much time to develop into colonies as growth factors, including autocrine [21][22][23][24], paracrine [24], and juxtacrine [25] factors, play an important role in cell growth. Therefore, we developed a new method for producing high-density culture, using magnetic nanoparticles to promote expansion of MSCs.…”
