Generation of functional neutrophils and macrophages from induced pluripotent stem cells in chemically defined conditions using transient expression of ETV2

The present invention provides methods of producing in vitro derived neutrophils or macrophages in xenogen- and serum-free conditions from pluripotent stem cells and in vitro derived populations of neutrophils and macrophages. Methods of treatment using in vitro derived neutrophils or macrophages are also contemplated.
