Figure 3. Immunofluorescence staining of selected markers in SE and hiPSCs.
SE markers KRT8, KRT18, KRT19, p63, AP-2α, AP-2γ, ALDH1A3, p-SMAD1/5/9, CDH1, Desmoglein 3 and FOXG1 endodermal marker AFP, Mesodermal marker Brachyury (T), and neural ectoderm marker OTX2 were stained. DAPI was used to stain nuclei. The secondary antibodies Alexa −488 and Alexa −594 were used to visualize green and red signals, respectively. Insert in AFP staining image (+): Hela control cells stained by anti-AFP antibody and showed positive staining. Original magnification x200. Bars: 50 μm.
