Figure Lengend Snippet: Tissue-specific effects of EEM on esophageal organoid culture. a) Brightfield images of esophageal organoids cultured for 11 days in various ECM hydrogels (5 mg mL −1 ) produced from different decellularized organs. b) qRT-PCR analysis to compare gene expression of a basal layer marker ( Krt14 ) and a suprabasal layer marker ( Krt13 ) in esophageal organoids cultured in various ECM hydrogels for 11 days ( n = 4; one-way ANOVA with Tukey's multiple comparisons test; ∗ p < 0.05, ∗∗ p < 0.01, and ∗∗∗ p < 0.001 versus EEM; ns, non-significant difference with p > 0.05). c) Representative immunofluorescence staining images showing CK14 (a basal layer marker) and CK13 (a suprabasal layer marker) expression in esophageal organoids cultured in various ECM hydrogels for 11 days. d) Quantification of CK14 + and CK13 + areas in esophageal organoids cultured in various ECM hydrogels for 11 days, based on immunofluorescence staining ( n = 4; one-way ANOVA with Tukey's multiple comparisons test; ∗ p < 0.05 and ∗∗ p < 0.01 versus EEM; ns, non-significant difference with p > 0.05).

Article Snippet: The relative gene expression was evaluated using the primers for the following genes (all from Thermo Fisher Scientific): sex-determining region Y-box 2 ( Sox2 ; Mm03053810_s1), keratin 14 ( Krt14 ; Mm00516876_m1), keratin 13 ( Krt13 ; Mm00495199_m1), keratin 4 ( Krt4 ; Mm01296260_m1), keratin 18 ( Krt18 ; Mm01601704_g1), keratin 19 ( Krt19 ; Mm00492980_m1), alpha fetoprotein ( Afp ; Mm00431715_m1), keratin 5 ( Krt5 ; Mm01305291_g1), secretoglobin family 1A member 1 ( Scgb1a1 ; Mm00442046_m1), and forkhead box J1 ( Foxj1 ; Mm01267279_m1).
