Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Representative gene expression of Epi lineage, TE lineage, and PrE lineage in E4.5 embryo cells, BPSC (derived from EPSC) after 1 or 2 days of spontaneous differentiation, and EPSC after 2 days of spontaneous differentiation. (B) Flow cytometry was used to sort single positive and double positive cells and exclude PDFFRA positive cells. (C) Immunofluorescence staining of Oct4+/Cdx2+ and Oct4+/Cdx2-cells after 2 days of spontaneous differentiation. Staining for OCT4, CDX2 and GATA6. Scale bar, 20 μm. (D) Immunofluorescence staining of differentiation cells with or without FGF4 & Heparin. Staining for OCT4, CDX2 and GATA6. Scale bar, 20 μm. (E) Stacked bar plot showing the percentages of Oct4+/Cdx2+ and Oct4+/Cdx2-cell differentiation with or without FGF4 & Heparin.
Article Snippet: TSM was based on TSM basal medium supplemented with 25 ng/mL FGF4 (Sino Biological 16043-HNAE-100) and 1μg/mL Heparin (Sigma-Aldrich H3149-500KU).
