^*Fold change of transcript abundance for splanchnic mesoderm cells compared to pluripotent H9 cells. A fold change <1 indicates that the transcript is more abundant in H9 cells than in the splanchnic mesoderm cells and a fold change >1 indicates that the transcript is more abundant in the splanchnic mesoderm cells than in H9 cells. A fold change equal to 1 indicates no changes in the transcript level upon differentiation of H9 cells into splanchnic mesoderm cells.
