Figure 3. Molecular characterization of RiPS cells.

Figure 3

(A) Heatmap showing results of qRT-PCR analysis measuring the expression of pluripotency-associated genes in RiPS cell lines, parental fibroblasts and viral-derived iPS cells relative to hES cell controls. (B) Heatmap showing results of OCT4 promoter methylation analysis of RiPS cell lines, parental fibroblasts, and hES cell controls. (C) Global gene expression profiles of BJ-, MRC5- and dH1F-derived RiPS cells shown in scatter plots against parental fibroblasts and hES cells with pluripotency-associated transcripts indicated. (D) Dendrogram showing unsupervised hierarchical clustering of the global expression profiles for RiPS cells, parental fibroblasts, hES cells, and virus-derived iPS cells.
