Fig 6. Pancreatic Fate specification in ARX ko hESCs.

Fig 6

(A) RT-qPCR of day 17 and day 26 whole population samples examining the expression of transcription factors believed to be involved in pancreatic endocrine fate specification. Wild type (WT; black bars) and ARX knockout clone 1 (ARX ko; red bars) cell samples relative to adult human islets expression levels. † indicates p < 0.05 within the genotype over time, * indicates p < 0.05 wild type vs ARX ko at given culture day, N = 4 per group. (A-E) Immunostaining of 26-day differentiated wild type and ARX ko cells, 13 week human fetal pancreatic tissue and adult human pancreatic tissue. Inset is a ~3x enlarged portion from the region indicated by the star. Scale bar is 100 μm for all panels.
