N2 - This paper reports the culturing and expansion of mouse induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in hydrogel core-shell microfibers; the core consists of iPSCs with or without extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, and the shell is composed of calcium alginate. We revealed that mouse iPSCs cultured in the micro-scale space with ECM proteins sustain their pluriotency efficiently. This 3D culture system may be a useful tool to expand iPSCs for clinical use.
