FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention teaches methods and materials for the cellular redifferentiation of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived hematopoietic stem cells (e.g., iHSCs), which are useful in, inter alia, generating gamma delta (γδ) T cells, derived from such iPSCs. The methods and materials of the present invention comprise a scalable, three-dimensional (3D) method using a vertical-wheel bioreactor to redifferentiate iHSCs for manufacture of iPSC-derived cell therapy products. BACKGROUND [0003] Immune cell therapy, such as T cell immunotherapy, including autologous chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapies, has been reported to be an efficacious therapy for the treatment of some diseases, such as some cancers, including some hematologic malignancies. However, applications of cell therapy to treat multiple cancer types has met numerous and varied challenges (see, e.g., Advances and challenges of CAR T therapy and suitability of animal models (Review), Authors: Xavier E. Ramos-Cardona Weichuan Luo Sulma I. Mohammed; Published online on: July 12, 2022). SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0004] Advances in T cell immunotherapy have been reported, such as in autologous CAR T cell therapy; however, applications of cell therapy to treat multiple cancer types has unmet challenges and the present invention, against this backdrop, meets many of the challenges that impede access to therapeutic cell products, such as for example prohibitive, high manufacturing 1 301689646v1
Attorney Docket No: 253505.000510 / JBI6830WOPCT1 costs, increased complexity, lack of a consistent and scalable manufacturing process, etc. For example, the inventors of the present invention use iPSCs, which can undergo inter alia self- renewal, gene editing, multilineage differentiation, etc., to advance off-the-shelf, allogeneic, CAR- engineered T cell therapy platforms with more commercially viable, automated, energy efficient, and resource sparing manufacturing processes. For example, an iPSC-derived cell therapy platform in accordance with the present invention is based on production of γδ T cells, which possess intrinsic antitumor activity and whose cellular tumor infiltration is associated with more favorable outcomes. There is therefore a need in the art for methods of efficiently redifferentiating iPSCs, derived from γδ T cells, into iPSC-derived HSCs (iHSCs) as a source for manufacturing robust allogeneic γδ T cells in sufficient numbers. Such iHSCs are of sufficient purity and fold expansion, and as iHSCs, exhibit high T cell redifferentiation potential for use for T cell-based products, as well as γδ T cells that have superior increased purity and fold expansion properties and are more readily made and used. The present invention is directed to such improved methods and materials. [0005] The inventors address a need in the art for methods of generating iHSCs from iPSCs with a scalable method using a 3D vertical wheel (3D-VW) bioreactor and without the use of, for example, serum or additional cells (e.g., feeder or stromal cells). This method results in iHSCs with high purity, viability, fold expansion, and potential to redifferentiate into immune effector cells, including lymphocytes such as γδ T cells, specifically iPSC-derived γδ (iγδ) T cells. These unexpected results met or exceeded the estimated outcomes for yield, purity, viability, fold expansion, and potential to redifferentiate based on a research-scale 2D culture system. The present application addresses these and other needs.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS [0159] Figures 1A-1B show the iHSC redifferentiation process. Figure 1A shows the process flow of the iHSC redifferentiation process. Figure 1B shows an exemplary bioreactor system schematic of the present invention, comprising a waste member, medium reservoir member, pump member, reactor chamber member including a vertical wheel member (black circle), cell inlet member (not shown), cell release member (not shown) and connector members. Adapted from Bioreactor Systems for Bone Tissue Engineering Article in Tissue Engineering Part B Reviews, 2011, DOI: 10.1089/ten.TEB.2010.0612. [0160] Figure 2 shows the step-by-step iHSC redifferentiation process in a 3D-VW bioreactor. [0161] Figure 3 shows the purity, total yield, viability, and fold expansion of iHSCs redifferentiated from a single human γδ T cell-derived iPSC clone in a 3D-VW bioreactor culture, where iHSCs were defined as lineage marker-negative CD34+ cells. Both thrombopoietin (TPO) and erythropoietin (EPO) can support iHSC redifferentiation. iHSCs were detected as single cells and in dissociated cell clusters. This novel 3D iHSC protocol met the exemplary acceptance criteria for iHSC+ purity. [0162] Figure 4 shows the 3D-vertical wheel (VW) process reproducibly generated iHSCs with high purity and yield and with sufficient fold expansion. iHSCs were redifferentiated from two different iPSC clones in a research-scale 2D culture system and in the 3D-VW culture system. The initial exemplary success criterion for iHSC differentiation was 70% iHSC cells (Lin-CD34+) and 0.5-fold iHSC expansion. Purity and cell viability were comparable between the 3D and 2D processes for these two iPSC clones. [0163] Figure 5 shows iHSCs generated in the 3D-VW process possess iγδ T cell redifferentiation potential. iHSC cells generated in the 3D-VW process yielded iγδ T cells at a purity that is consistent with iHSC cells generated with the 2D process. The iHSC to iγδ T cell redifferentiation process was carried out in a 2D culture system following a basic protocol and utilizing iHSCs redifferentiated in 2D and 3D culture systems. The 3D-derived iHSCs used in this experiment were generated by seeding iPSCs at 1.5x standard protocol seeding density. The initial 35 301689646v1
Attorney Docket No: 253505.000510 / JBI6830WOPCT1 exemplary success criterion for iγδ T cell redifferentiation was 20-40% iγδ T cells (CD3+TCRγδ+) and 5-fold expansion. [0164] Together, these data indicated that the 3D-VW process generated iHSC cells with T cell differentiation potential. [0165] Figure 6 shows historical data of T cell differentiation potential across multiple clones for iCD34 redifferentiation in an exemplary 3D-VW reactor as measured in terms of purity, fold expansion, and yield. For the dissociated single cells, 50% of the harvested single cell population was treated with the same enzymes used to dissociate clusters to examine the effects of such enzymes on T cell differentiation potential. The initial exemplary success criterion for iHSC differentiation was 70% iHSC cells (defined as Lin-CD34
+) and 0.5-fold iHSC expansion. Three independent cell clones, Clone B, Clone C, and Clone E, possessed high T cell differentiation potential. DETAILED DESCRIPTION Definitions [0166] Various terms relating to aspects of the description are used throughout the specification and claims. Such terms are to be given their ordinary meaning in the art unless otherwise indicated. Other specifically defined terms are to be construed in a manner consistent with the definitions provided herein. [0167] As used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural referents unless the content clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to “a cell” includes a combination of two or more cells, and the like. [0168] The term “about” as used herein when referring to a measurable value such as an amount, a temporal duration, and the like, is meant to encompass variations of up to ±10% from the specified value, as such variations are appropriate to perform the disclosed methods. Unless otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing quantities of ingredients, properties such as molecular weight, reaction conditions, and so forth used in the specification and claims are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term “about.” Accordingly, unless indicated to the contrary, the numerical parameters set forth in the following specification and attached claims are approximations that may vary depending upon the desired properties sought to be obtained by the present invention. At the very least, and not as an attempt to limit the application of the doctrine 36 301689646v1
Attorney Docket No: 253505.000510 / JBI6830WOPCT1 of equivalents to the scope of the claims, each numerical parameter should at least be construed in light of the number of reported significant digits and by applying ordinary rounding techniques. [0169] Notwithstanding that the numerical ranges and parameters setting forth the broad scope of the invention are approximations, the numerical values set forth in the specific examples are reported as precisely as possible. Any numerical value, however, inherently contains certain errors necessarily resulting from the standard deviation found in their respective testing measurements. [0170] The terms “treating” or “treatment” refer to any success or indicia of success in the attenuation or amelioration of an injury, pathology or condition, including any objective or subjective parameter such as abatement, remission, diminishing of symptoms or making the condition more tolerable to the patient, slowing in the rate of degeneration or decline, making the final point of degeneration less debilitating, improving a subject’s physical or mental well-being, or prolonging the length of survival. The treatment may be assessed by objective or subjective parameters; including the results of a physical examination, neurological examination, or psychiatric evaluations. [0171] The term “induced pluripotent stem cell” (hereinafter “iPSC”) means a stem cell that is established by introducing reprogramming factors into a somatic cell, has pluripotency permitting differentiation into any cell types present in living organisms, and also has proliferation (i.e., self-renewal) capacity. It encompasses any cell that can be redifferentiated into a hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) to be used in the present invention. The iPSC is preferably derived from a primate (e.g., monkey, orangutan, chimpanzee, human), more preferably human. [0172] The term “iHSC” refers to hematopoietic stem cells that are derived from iPSCs. [0173] The terms “non-traditional geometries” or “non-traditional bioreactors” refer to those geometries or bioreactors that do not fall under the definitions of “traditional geometries” or “traditional bioreactors”, respectively, i.e., geometries that pre-date this invention. “Non- traditional geometries” or “non-traditional bioreactors” may refer to geometries or bioreactors that combine radial and axial flow components. The vertical-wheel bioreactor is a non-limiting example of a non-traditional bioreactor. “Traditional geometries” or “traditional bioreactors” may refer to stirred-tank geometries or stirred-tank bioreactors, respectively. “Traditional geometries” or “traditional bioreactors” may refer to geometries or bioreactors that have radial flow components. Horizontal-blade bioreactors and turbine impellers are non-limiting examples of traditional bioreactors. “Traditional geometries” and “traditional bioreactors” are further defined 37 301689646v1

Overcoming bioprocess bottlenecks in the large-scale expansion of high- quality hiPSC aggregates in vertical-wheel stirred suspension bioreactors. Stem Cell Research & Therapy. 2021, 12:55, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The terms “3D vertical-wheel bioreactor” and “tissue culture vessel comprising a vertical wheel” and the like are used interchangeably herein. [0174] The embodiments described herein are not limited to particular methods, reagents, compounds, compositions, or biological systems, which can, of course, vary. Methods of Generating iHSCs [0175] γδ T cells were selected as the iPSC cell of origin because it is known that the epigenetic and transcriptional memory of the starting cell influences and enhances iPSC redifferentiation potential to that cell type. An optimized three-dimensional (3D) serum-free, feeder-free (SFFF) protocol was used to redifferentiate γδ T-iPSCs into iHSCs and then into iγδ T cells as shown in Figures 1A, 1B, and 2. Purity and fold expansion were determined from two different iPSC clones to iHSCs and from iHSCs to iγδ T cells. Images of the cells were recorded. Exemplary success criteria were set for the purity and fold expansion of redifferentiated iHSCs and iγδ T cells based on results from a 3D redifferentiation protocol and from a 2D redifferentiation protocol. The 3D-VW bioreactor protocol for the redifferentiation of iPSCs to iHSCs resulted in high purity, high cell viability, high yield, and sufficient fold expansion as shown in Figures 3-6. The protocol also yielded iγδ T cells at a purity that met the exemplary success criterion and with a fold expansion that is consistent with iHSCs generated with the 2D process. These data demonstrate the efficiency and validity of the 3D-VW bioreactor protocol for the generation of iHSCs from γδ T-iPSCs as shown in Figures 3-6.

[0340] In one aspect, provided herein is a composition comprising the one or more cells as described herein. [0341] In one aspect, provided herein is a use of the one or more cells described herein, in preparation of cells for treating diseases, in preparation of lymphocytes, in a bioreactor, in tissue engineering or in vitro drug screening for diseases. [0342] Cell viability decreases have been reported due to single-cell enzymatic dissociation of hPSCs. Thus, typically, hPSCs are grown as colonies or aggregates and clump seeding is used as the inoculation strategy for bioreactor culture. This strategy has resulted in limitations to scalability, as for example clump sizes are difficult to control, leading to apoptosis and differentiation due to heterogeneous aggregate sizes. Studies using single-cell seeding as the inoculation strategy with traditional bioreactors have required large cell seeding densities and led to low cell production. Surprisingly, the invention herein overcomes challenges by maintaining single cells throughout the processes described herein by using, for example, a cell retention filter that does not remove single cells, but rather preserves them. The presence of single cells and thus a heterogeneous environment made of single cells and cell aggregates has been unexpectedly found to advance such processes, benefiting cell yield and quality. [0343] The present invention therefore positively impacts bioecosystems and the environment by driving advancements that help reduce human resources, power, energy consumption, carbon emissions, and overall environmental impact. The present invention provides automation and efficiency features and provides more efficient processes and systems, reducing the need for extensive manual labor, while minimizing the environmental impact associated with resource- intensive activities. The automation of the present invention optimizes energy consumption, 74 301689646v1
Attorney Docket No: 253505.000510 / JBI6830WOPCT1 streamlines operations, and reduces waste, resulting in improved efficiency and reduced carbon emissions. The present invention enables more sustainable production, including the development of cleaner and more resource-efficient technologies and the adoption of circular economy practices, such as recycling and waste reduction as it minimizes material waste, including biomass loss, optimizes supply chains, and implements greener manufacturing practices. The present invention thereby brings about disruptive changes that drive resource efficiency, reduce waste and associated carbon emissions, and promotes sustainability. 3D vertical-wheel bioreactor [0344] As described herein, the iPSCs suspended in a medium are cultured in a 3D vertical- wheel bioreactor, also referred to herein as a tissue culture vessel comprising a vertical wheel. Without wishing to be bound by theory, the vertical-wheel bioreactor is used to manufacture cells via rotation of a vertical-wheel impeller within a U-shaped vessel, combining radial and axial flow components. This allows for suspension and gentle agitation of the cells. The use of a vertical- wheel bioreactor is detailed within Croughan, M. S., et al. Initial power measurements for a family of novel vertical-wheel bioreactors. Can. J. Chem. Eng.2022, 1-12; Dang, T., et al.

Eng. 2021, 1-18; Borys, B. S., et al. Overcoming bioprocess bottlenecks in the large-scale expansion of high-quality hiPSC aggregates in vertical-wheel stirred suspension bioreactors.

Stem Cell Research & Therapy. 2023, 14:154; all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. The 3D vertical-wheel bioreactor is surprising for its adaptation to redifferentiation of iPSC-derived intermediates, as it has been used primarily for iPSC maintenance up to this point and has faced challenges in its uses. The hydrodynamics of the 3D vertical-wheel bioreactor are different than that of a typical stirred tank bioreactor as the 3D vertical-wheel bioreactor provides a reduced cell shear. [0345] The parts of the vertical-wheel bioreactor, including the vertical-wheel impeller and the U-shaped vessel can vary in size, as a person having ordinary skill in the art would understand. In some embodiments, a 0.5 L bioreactor may use a vertical-wheel impeller with a diameter of about 73 mm and a width of about 25 mm and a U-shaped vessel with a radius of about 43 mm. The impeller radius may be about 85% of the U-shaped vessel radius. In some embodiments, a 3 75 301689646v1
Attorney Docket No: 253505.000510 / JBI6830WOPCT1 L bioreactor may use a vertical-wheel impeller with a diameter of about 137 mm and a width of about 37 mm and a U-shaped vessel with a radius of about 83 mm. The impeller radius may be about 83% of the U-shaped vessel radius. In some embodiments, a 15 L bioreactor may use a vertical-wheel impeller with a diameter of about 227 mm and a width of about 113 mm and a U- shaped vessel with a radius of about 138 mm. The impeller radius may be about 83% of the U- shaped vessel radius. [0346] Computational fluid dynamics modelling has supported the use of models across scales by producing scale-up equations and calculating volume average hydrodynamic values. The k- epsilon turbulence model is a commonly used model to simulate flow characteristics in suspension bioreactors. This model uses the following two equations to represent the conservation of momentum and mass: ^^ + ∇ ∙ ρu = 0 ^^
^ ^ ^^^ + ∇ ^ρu × u^ = −∇P + μ∇
^^ + ρg ^^ wherein ρ is the density, u is the

P is pressure, µ is viscosity, and g is the gravity vector. [0347] This model can showcase the impact of changing scale and agitation rate on the velocity and energy dissipation rate (EDR) within the bioreactor. Uniform volume average hydrodynamic force parameters are desired. If the fluid velocity is not great enough for effective mixing, it can lead to fluid dead zones, where mixing does not occur. EDR is commonly used as an alternative to shear stress in the characterization of flow conditions. If the EDR is too low, the aggregates may become too large and clump together and settle. If the EDR is too high, the aggregates may be sheared apart leaving single cells unable to form aggregates. These situations lead to reduced cell proliferation, increased cell death, and aggregates lacking uniformity in shape and size. [0348] The use of traditional bioreactors has exhibited hydrodynamic environments that are unfavorable to iPSC maintenance and growth. The traditional bioreactor may provide an environment wherein the high shear stress may damage cells by tearing apart cells and cell aggregates, lowering cell yield and quality. The shear stress increases with scale, and during the expansion phase in traditional bioreactors, only moderate cell fold increases have been shown. Thus, the use of traditional bioreactors has limited the ability to scale the inoculation and harvesting phases. 76 301689646v1
Attorney Docket No: 253505.000510 / JBI6830WOPCT1 [0349] The computational fluid dynamics model provides confirmation that the vertical-wheel bioreactor, by combining radial and axial flow components, creates hydrodynamic forces that are more uniformly distributed. The vertical-wheel bioreactor has lemniscate velocity streamlines whereas the traditional bioreactor has circular velocity streamlines. The vertical-wheel bioreactor has decreased dissipation energy gradients, lower shear effects, and more uniform particle suspension compared to traditional bioreactors, supporting the vertical-wheel bioreactor environment to better scale compared to the environment of traditional bioreactors. [0350] High cell-fold expansion and morphologically healthy and uniform aggregate cell growth has been shown at a scale of 0.1 L with an agitation rate of 60 rpm. Using the correlation equations, to maintain the same volume average EDR through scale-up, these values correlate with a scale of 0.5 L with an agitation rate of 30 rpm, a scale of 3 L with an agitation rate of 24 rpm, and a scale of 15 L with an agitation rate of 15 rpm. A working range of volume average EDRs for culturing human iPSCs has been suggested to be between 3.0E-4 and 1.5E-3 m

On Day 7 of the iPSC 3D culture, 100 mL of^TrypLE was aliquoted and 1 μL of^ROCKi^ was added per 1 mL of^TrypLE^aliquots to result in a concentration of 10^μM. b. The vessel was removed from its base and was set aside^in the BSC to settle aggregates for 3–5 minutes^(3 minutes was used for larger aggregates). c. The vessel was not disturbed during^the settle period. d. After settling,^spent medium^was carefully removed from the vessel into a^container^using a serological pipette until less than 10^mL^of^the spent medium^remained^in the vessel. i. First, a^50 or 25 mL^serological pipette was used to remove the majority of spent medium. ii. Next, a 10 mL serological pipette was used to remove the remaining medium leaving <10^mL (medium and cells) in the vessel. e. The supernatant was discarded and 100 mL^TrypLE +^ROCKi^was added to the vessel for in-vessel cell dissociation. 107 301689646v1
Attorney Docket No: 253505.000510 / JBI6830WOPCT1 f. The vessel was installed onto^its base inside the incubator with agitation speed of 50 rpm^for enzymatic cell dissociation^for 20 minutes. g. The vessel was removed once dissociation^time was completed and 25 mL volumes were transferred to 50 mL centrifuge tubes so that four conical tubes each had approximately 25 mL of cell solution. If there was extra volume left in the reactor, this was distributed across the conical tubes. The solution in each conical tube was mixed with a 10 mL pipette until no clusters were visible (approximately 5-10 mixes). Once complete dissociation was confirmed, PBS buffer was added until 50 mL total volume was reached.^The solution was then mixed. h. The cells were centrifuged at 300 g^for 5 minutes. i. Once centrifugation was done, the supernatant was discarded using a serological pipette^(or aspirator). j. 2 mL of^fresh media^were added with a micropipette to each tube and the cell pellet was gently resuspended. The cell solutions were combined into one conical tube reaching a total of 8 mL cell solution. k. One^150^μL^sample^was taken from the vessel and added into a microtube^for counting. l. 150^μL^of^PBS^was added into the microtube containing the cell sample for a 2x dilution. m. The cell number was counted using NC-200.^Viable cells/mL, cell viability,^cell diameter,^and % in aggregates remaining were recorded. n. The next step was either to proceed to Step 2.6 for iCD34 differentiation, to seed cells into new 0.5 L vessels at 20,000 cells/mL for further iPSC expansion, or to freeze down the sample for flow analysis by centrifuging the required number of cells at 300 g for 5 minutes, removing the supernatant, and resuspending the cells in 1 mL of^CS10, then storing overnight in -80 °C. i. 5x10

On Day 7 of the iPSC 3D culture, 100 mL of^TrypLE was aliquoted and 1 μL of^ROCKi^ was added per 1 mL of^TrypLE^aliquots to result in a concentration of 10^μM. b. The vessel was removed from its base and was set aside^in the BSC to settle aggregates for 3–5 minutes^(3 minutes was used for larger aggregates). c. The vessel was not disturbed during^the settle period. d. After settling,^spent medium^was carefully removed from the vessel into a^container^using a serological pipette until less than 10^mL^of^the spent medium^remained^in the vessel. i. First, a^50 or 25 mL^serological pipette was used to remove the majority of spent medium. ii. Next, a 10 mL serological pipette was used to remove the remaining medium leaving <10^mL (medium and cells) in the vessel. e. The supernatant was discarded and 100 mL^TrypLE +^ROCKi^was added to the vessel for in-vessel cell dissociation. f. The vessel was installed onto^its base inside the incubator with agitation speed of 50 rpm^for enzymatic cell dissociation^for 20 minutes. g. The vessel was removed once dissociation^time was completed and 25 mL volumes were transferred to 50 mL centrifuge tubes so that four conical tubes each had approximately 25 mL of cell solution. If there was extra volume left in the reactor, this was distributed across the conical tubes. The solution in each conical tube was mixed with a 10 mL pipette until no clusters were visible (approximately 5-10 122 301689646v1
Attorney Docket No: 253505.000510 / JBI6830WOPCT1 mixes). Once complete dissociation was confirmed, PBS buffer was added until 50 mL total volume was reached.^The solution was then mixed 2-3 times. h. The cells were centrifuged at 300 g^for 5 minutes. i. Once centrifugation was done, the supernatant was discarded using a serological pipette^(or aspirator). j. 2 mL of^fresh media^were added with a micropipette to each tube and the cell pellet was gently resuspended. The cell solutions were combined into one conical tube reaching a total of 8 mL cell solution. k. Cells were filtered with a 70 µm filter into a new conical tube. l. One^150^μL^sample^was taken from the conical tube and added into a microtube^for counting. m. 150^μL^of^PBS^was added into the microtube containing the cell sample for a 2x dilution. n. The cell number was counted using NC-200.^Viable cells/mL, cell viability,^cell diameter,^and % in aggregates remaining were recorded. o. The next step was either to proceed to Step 3.6 to begin the iCD34 differentiation process in a 3 L reactor, to seed cells into new 0.5 L vessels at 20,000 cells/mL for further iPSC expansion, or to freeze down the sample for flow analysis by centrifuging the required number of cells at 300 g for 5 minutes, removing the supernatant, and resuspending the cells in 1 mL of^CS10, then storing overnight in -80 °C. i. 5x10
