Table 4. Expression of pluripotency, differentiation and housekeeping genes in CD90+NTSCs and CD90+CSCs.
Genes | Mean expression (RPKM) | |
CD90+NTSCs | CD90+CSCs | |
Pluripotency and differentiation | ||
Nanog | 57 | 61 |
Oct3/4 | 2.6 | 1.6 |
Sox18 | 18 | 15 |
Housekeeping | ||
ACTB | 1475 | 2385 |
GAPDH | 128 | 179 |
HPRT1 | 3.4 | 2.1 |
PGK | 28 | 24 |
No remarkable difference was observed between these two groups of CD90+ cells. Read counts were expressed in RPKM.
