    Abstract: A method for generating chondrocytes and/or cartilage, optionally articular like non-hypertrophic chondrocyte cells and/or cartilage like tissue and/or hypertrophic chondrocyte like cells and/or cartilage like tissue, the method comprising: a. culturing a primitive streak-like mesoderm population, optionally a CD56+, PDGFRalpha+ KDR-primitive streak-like mesoderm population, with a paraxial mesoderm specifying cocktail comprising: i. a FGF agonist; ii. a BMP inhibitor; optionally Noggin, LDN-193189, Dorsomorphin; and iii. optionally one or more of a TGFbeta inhibitor, optionally SB431524; and a Wnt inhibitor, optionally DKK1, IWP2, or XAV939; to specify a paraxial mesoderm population expressing cell surface CD73, CD105 and/or PDGFR-beta; b. generating a chondrocyte precursor population comprising: i. culturing the paraxial mesoderm population expressing CD73, CD105 and/or PDGFR-beta at a high cell density optionally in serum free or serum containing media; ii. culturing the high cell density CD73+, CD105+ and/or PDGFRbeta+ paraxial mesoderm population with a TGFbeta3 agonist in serum free media to produce a high cell density Sox9+, collagen 2+ chondrocyte precursor population; and c. either i. culturing the high cell density Sox9+, collagen 2+ chondrocyte precursor population with the TGFbeta3 agonist for an extended period of time to produce an articular like non-hypertrophic chondrocyte cells and/or cartilage like tissue; or ii. culturing the high cell density Sox9+ collagen2+ chondrocyte precursor population with a BMP4 agonist for an extended period of time to produce a hypertrophic chondrocyte like cells and/or cartilage like tissue.

    Abstract: Provided are methods and products for obtaining cardiovascular lineage cells from hPSCs. The method for obtaining a cardiomyocyte lineage or an epicardial lineage cell population from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) comprises one or more of the following steps: (a) contacting BMP component primed hPSCs with a cardiovascular mesoderm programming cocktail suitable for inducing the hPSCs to differentiate to a cardiovascular mesoderm cell population under conditions suitable for the programming cocktail to penetrate the hPSCs and culturing the contacted hPSCs for a period of time to generate a KDR+ and PDGFRalpha+ cardiovascular mesoderm cell population; (b) contacting the cardiovascular mesoderm cell population with a cardiovascular progenitor specification cocktail suitable to specify a NKX2-5+ or WT1+ cardiovascular progenitor cell population under conditions suitable for the specification cocktail to penetrate the cardiovascular mesoderm cell population and culturing the contacted cardiovascular mesoderm cell population for a period of time to generate a NKX2-5+ or WT1+ cardiovascular progenitor cell population; and (d) contacting the cardiovascular progenitor cell population with a maturation cocktail under conditions suitable for the maturation cocktail to penetrate the cardiovascular progenitor cell population and culturing the contacted cardiovascular progenitor population for a period of time to produce a cardiovascular population optionally cardiomyocyte lineage cells expressing cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and/or SIRPA and/or epicardial lineage cells expressing WT1. In a particular embodiment of the invention is an ex-vivo method of specifying a Wilm’s tumor protein 1 positive (WT1+) population comprising the step of contacting an hPSC-derived KDR+ and PDGFRalpha+ cardiovascular mesoderm cell population with a cardiovascular progenitor specification cocktail comprising human BMP4 at a concentration of between 0.63 ng/ml and 10 ng/ml. In addition this method optionally includes i) causing the cell population to progress toward a vascular smooth muscle-like fate by treating it with human TGFβ-1 or human TGFβ-1 followed by human bFGF; or (ii) causing the cell population to progress toward a fibroblast-like fate by treating it with human bFGF.
