Expression of retinal and neural development-related genes on Day 35. Cells were exposed to 0, 30, or 180 mGy of radiation from days 4 to 5 of development. RNA was extracted on day 35. Each sample includes 6 to 12 EBs. (A) Main four TFs for RGC development. Altered expression of PAX6, ATOH7, POU4F2, and HES1 by radiation was found. (B) Early-stage retinal development-related genes. Altered expression of POU5F1, TP53, CDKN1A, NRG1, NEFM, DLK1, and SIX3 was found. (C) Late-stage retinal development-related genes. Altered time-course expression of VSX2, DMD, PAX2, COL4A5, NEFM, and KLF7 was found. (D) Neuronal development-related genes. VIM, JUN and PARD3 are members of the Rho family of GTPases and are involved in neuronal development. After 180 mGy of irradiation, their expression was upregulated on day 35. The mean FPKM and average of the absolute deviations detected by RNA-seq three times are shown (n = 3). Error bar: average absolute deviation, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 (Student’s paired t test).
