Abstract
Changes in cell fluidity have been observed in various cellular tissues and are strongly linked to biological phenomena such as self-organization. Recent studies suggested variety of mechanisms and factors, which are still being investigated. This study aimed to investigate changes in cell fluidity in multi-layered cell sheets, by exploring the collective arrest of cell motion and its release in cultures of corneal epithelial cells. We constructed mathematical models to simulate the behaviors of individual cells, including cell differentiation and time-dependent changes in cell-cell connections, which are defined by stochastic or kinetic rules. Changes in cell fluidity and cell sheet structures were expressed by simulating autonomous cell behaviors and interactions in tissues using an agent-based model. A single-cell level spatiotemporal analysis of cell state transition between migratable and non-migratable states revealed that the release from collective arrest of cell motion was initially triggered by a decreased ability to form cell-cell connections in the suprabasal layers, and was propagated by chain migration. Notably, the disruption of cell-cell connections and stratification occurred in the region of migratable state cells. Hence, a modeling approach that considers time-dependent changes in cell properties and behavior, and spatiotemporal analysis at the single-cell level can effectively delineate emergent phenomena arising from the complex interplay of cells.

Abstract
During culture with feeder cells, deviation from the undifferentiated state of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) occurs at a very low frequency. Anomalous cell migration in central and peripheral regions of hiPSC colonies has been suggested to be the trigger for this phenomenon. To confirm this hypothesis, sequential cell migration prior to deviation must be demonstrated. This has been difficult using in vitro methods. We therefore developed a kinetic model with a proposed definition of anomalous cell migration as continuous relatively fast or slow cell migration. The developed model was validated via in silico reproduction of deviation phenomenon observed in vitro, such as the positions of deviated cells in a colony and the frequency of deviation in culture. This model suggests that anomalous cell migration-driven hiPSC deviation can be explained by two factors: a mechanical stimulus, represented by cell migration, and duration of the mechanical stimulus. The factor "duration of mechanical stimulus" sets our model apart from others, and helps to realize the ultra-rare trigger (approximately 10-5) of deviation from the undifferentiated state in hiPSC culture.

Abstract
Human pluripotent stem cells hold great promise for developments in regenerative medicine and drug design. The mathematical modelling of stem cells and their properties is necessary to understand and quantify key behaviours and develop non-invasive prognostic modelling tools to assist in the optimisation of laboratory experiments. Here, the recent advances in the mathematical modelling of hPSCs are discussed, including cell kinematics, cell proliferation and colony formation, and pluripotency and differentiation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cell proliferation is a key characteristic of eukaryotic cells. During cell proliferation, cells interact with each other. In this study, we developed a cellular automata model to estimate cell-cell interactions using experimentally obtained images of cultured cells. RESULTS We used four types of cells; HeLa cells, human osteosarcoma (HOS) cells, rat mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and rat smooth muscle A7r5 cells. These cells were cultured and stained daily. The obtained cell images were binarized and clipped into squares containing about 104 cells. These cells showed characteristic cell proliferation patterns. The growth curves of these cells were generated from the cell proliferation images and we determined the doubling time of these cells from the growth curves. We developed a simple cellular automata system with an easily accessible graphical user interface. This system has five variable parameters, namely, initial cell number, doubling time, motility, cell-cell adhesion, and cell-cell contact inhibition (of proliferation). Within these parameters, we obtained initial cell numbers and doubling times experimentally. We set the motility at a constant value because the effect of the parameter for our simulation was restricted. Therefore, we simulated cell proliferation behavior with cell-cell adhesion and cell-cell contact inhibition as variables. By comparing growth curves and proliferation cell images, we succeeded in determining the cell-cell interaction properties of each cell. Simulated HeLa and HOS cells exhibited low cell-cell adhesion and weak cell-cell contact inhibition. Simulated MSCs exhibited high cell-cell adhesion and positive cell-cell contact inhibition. Simulated A7r5 cells exhibited low cell-cell adhesion and strong cell-cell contact inhibition. These simulated results correlated with the experimental growth curves and proliferation images. CONCLUSIONS Our simulation approach is an easy method for evaluating the cell-cell interaction properties of cells.

Abstract
Regenerative therapy using autologous skeletal myoblasts requires a large number of cells to be prepared for high-level secretion of cytokines and chemokines to induce good regeneration of damaged regions. However, myoblast expansion culture is hindered by a reduction in growth rate owing to cellular quiescence and differentiation, therefore optimization is required. We have developed a kinetic computational model describing skeletal myoblast proliferation and differentiation, which can be used as a prediction tool for the expansion process. In the model, myoblasts migrate, divide, quiesce and differentiate as observed during in vitro culture. We assumed cell differentiation initiates following cell-cell attachment for a defined time period. The model parameter values were estimated by fitting to several predetermined experimental datasets. Using an additional experimental dataset, we confirmed validity of the developed model. We then executed simulations using the developed model under several culture conditions and quantitatively predicted that non-uniform cell seeding had adverse effects on the expansion culture, mainly by reducing the existing ratio of proliferative cells. The proposed model is expected to be useful for predicting myoblast behaviours and in designing efficient expansion culture conditions for these cells.

Abstract
In the successive cultures of human keratinocyte cells, cellular motions of extension and rotation were analyzed based on observation of the individual cells, to evaluate the proliferative potential in a whole cell population. In lag phases of the serial cultures, an extension index of individual cells, R(E), was defined as an average spreading rate divided by initial cell area for each cell. The mean value of R(E) was found to relate to prolongation of lag time; namely it decreased with increasing passage number in the successive cultures approaching cellular senescence. During the courses of the cultures, the rotation rate of paired cells was also measured through time-lapse observation. The mean value of rotation rate, [Formula: see text], decreased with an increase in doubling time caused by the progress of cellular age, reaching an almost constant value of [Formula: see text] h(-1) in the cultures with prolonged doubling time of over 59 h. It was concluded that the indices determined from the motions of individual cells, R(E) and [Formula: see text], were correlated with the lag time and doubling time, respectively, which are growth parameters varied with the vitality of the cells approaching cellular senescence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Stem cell therapies based on differentiation of adult or embryonic stem cells into specialized ones appear to be effective for treating several human diseases. This work addresses the mathematical simulation of proliferation kinetics of stem cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sheep bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (phenotype characterized by flow cytometry analysis) seeded at different initial concentrations in Petri dishes were expanded to confluence. Sigmoid temporal profiles of total counts obtained through classic haemocytometry were quantitatively interpreted by both a phenomenological logistic equation and a novel model based on a one-dimensional, single-staged population balance approach capable of taking into account contact inhibition at confluence. The models' parameters were determined by comparison with experimental data on population expansion starting from single seeding concentration. Reliability of the models was tested by predicting cell proliferation carried out starting from different seeding concentrations. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION It was found that the proposed population balance modelling approach was successful in predicting the experimental data over the whole range of initial cell numbers investigated, while prediction capability of phenomenological logistic equation was more limited.

Abstract
This paper reviews early studies of regenerative medicine using human cells and engineered tissues progressing from a laboratory-centered manual procedure toward automated manufacture. It then examines the distinctive bioprocesses by which autologous human material must be produced, the degree of simplification allowed by use of allogeneic cell lines and engineered tissue derived from them, and issues that affect both cell types. The paper concludes by drawing upon this discussion to suggest some factors that will determine how regenerative medicine bioprocessing can progress to provide many units of material economically.

Abstract
A novel bioreactor system was designed to perform a series of batchwise cultures of anchorage-dependent cells by means of automated operations of medium change and passage for cell transfer. The experimental data on contamination frequency ensured the biological cleanliness in the bioreactor system, which facilitated the operations in a closed environment, as compared with that in flask culture system with manual handlings. In addition, the tools for growth prediction (based on growth kinetics) and real-time growth monitoring by measurement of medium components (based on small-volume analyzing machinery) were installed into the bioreactor system to schedule the operations of medium change and passage and to confirm that culture proceeds as scheduled, respectively. The successive culture of anchorage-dependent cells was conducted with the bioreactor running in an automated way. The automated bioreactor gave a successful culture performance with fair accordance to preset scheduling based on the information in the latest subculture, realizing 79- fold cell expansion for 169 h. In addition, the correlation factor between experimental data and scheduled values through the bioreactor performance was 0.998. It was concluded that the proposed bioreactor with the integration of the prediction and monitoring tools could offer a feasible system for the manufacturing process of cultured tissue products.

Abstract
The subculture of rabbit chondrocytes with serial passaging was carried out for cell expansion on a collagen-coated surface, and the morphological transition of round-shaped cells to spindle-shaped ones was examined. The observation of cytoskeletal formation by staining F-actin and vinculin supported the view that the round-shaped cells were in the process of differentiation with immature stress fibers relating to less cellular polarity. The cellular morphology was estimated in terms of the distribution of roundness, R(C), during the subculturing on the collagen substrate. The frequency of the number of round-shaped cells, which was defined as the ratio of the number of cells with R(C) >0.9 against the total cell number, was correlated in a logarithmic formula with the number of population doublings during the subcultures. Kinetic models were adopted for the process design of the combined culture of chondrocytes with monolayer growth on the collagen substrate and subsequent three-dimensional growth in Atelocollagen gel, employing the boundary conditions based on the population balance between differentiated and dedifferentiated cells. The combined culture was performed successfully according to the process design scheduled as monolayer growth for 240 h and three-dimensional growth for 264 h, the number of seed cells being 68% of that in the conventional culture for 504 h where monolayer growth for cell expansion was not included.

Abstract
For repairing articular cartilage defects, innovative techniques based on tissue engineering have been developed and are now entering into the practical stage of clinical application by means of grafting in vitro cultured products. A variety of natural and artificial materials available for scaffolds, which permit chondrocyte cells to aggregate, have been designed for their ability to promote cell growth and differentiation. From the viewpoint of the manufacturing process for tissue-engineered cartilage, the diverse nature of raw materials (seeding cells) and end products (cultured cartilage) oblige us to design a tailor-made process with less reproducibility, which is an obstacle to establishing a production doctrine based on bioengineering knowledge concerning growth kinetics and modeling as well as designs of bioreactors and culture operations for certification of high product quality. In this article, we review the recent advances in the manufacturing of tissue-engineered cartilage. After outlining the manufacturing processes for tissue-engineered cartilage in the first section, the second and third sections, respectively, describe the three-dimensional culture of chondrocytes with Aterocollagen gel and kinetic model consideration as a tool for evaluating this culture process. In the final section, culture strategy is discussed in terms of the combined processes of monolayer growth (ex vivo chondrocyte cell expansion) and three-dimensional growth (construction of cultured cartilage in the gel).

Abstract
Novel technologies to establish three-dimensional constructs are desired for tissue engineering. In the present study, magnetic force was used to construct multilayered keratinocyte sheets and harvest the sheets without enzymatic treatment. Our original magnetite cationic liposomes, which have a positive surface charge in order to improve adsorption, were taken up by human keratinocytes at a concentration of 33 pg of magnetite per cell. The magnetically labeled keratinocytes (2x10(6) cells, which corresponds to 5 times the confluent concentration against the culture area of 24-well plates, in order to produce 5-layered keratinocyte sheets) were seeded into a 24-well ultralow-attachment plate, the surface of which was composed of a covalently bound hydrogel layer that is hydrophilic and neutrally charged. A magnet (4000 G) was placed under the well, and the keratinocytes formed a five-layered construct in low-calcium medium (calcium concentration, 0.15 mM) after 24 h of culture. Subsequently, when the five-layered keratinocytes were cultured in high-calcium medium (calcium concentration, 1.0 mM), keratinocytes further stratified, resulting in the formation of 10-layered epidermal sheets. When the magnet was removed, the sheets were detached from the bottom of the plates, and the sheets could be harvested with a magnet. These results suggest that this novel methodology using magnetite nanoparticles and magnetic force, which we have termed "magnetic force-based tissue engineering" (Mag-TE), is a promising approach for tissue engineering.

Abstract
Human amniotic epithelial cells (HAECs) are formed from amnioblasts, separated from the epiblast at about the 8th day after fertilization. Recent studies suggest that HAECs can produce various biologically active substances. In this study, the effects of cultured HAECs on keratinocytes were investigated. First of all, the effect of the medium conditioned by cultured HAECs on the proliferation of keratinocytes was examined. The conditioned medium significantly enhanced the proliferation (P<0.05). Next, the effect of co-culture with HAECs was also examined. The keratinocytes formed a stratified epithelium on day 7 after the start of co-culture. The cultured epithelium formed by the co-culture was five to six layers thick, could be detached by dispase treatment, and had sufficient strength as a sheet. These results suggest that HAECs will be a novel supplemental material for the tissue engineering of skin.
