Spotlights on the current perspectives on applications of human blood cell culture and organoids: Introductory remarks

Culture of blood cells, mainly erythrocytes, at industrial levels complying with cGMP regulations, aim to make them available, at large scale, any time and everywhere, when needed for transfusion, or laboratory applications. Understanding how blood cells differentiate and develop in-vivo, and mechanisms of differentiation and growth factors, has opened newer strategies for in-vitro culture from multipotent stem cells or immortalized lines. This offers interesting perspectives for obtaining such cultured bioproduct cells for medical applications.
