Figure 3

Neuronal and glial differentiation from embryonic NSCs is not affected by Emx1 gene deletion. NSCs differentiate in response to growth medium containing differentiation supplement after 7–14 days. Representative photomicrographs showing undifferentiated neural stem cells grown as monolayer (Nestin; A, soon after seeding; B, 7 days after seeding), differentiated neurons (C, TuJ1) and glia (D, GFAP) in red and nuclei in blue (Hoechst). Bar graph indicated the quantitative results for differentiation. The extent of neuronal vs. glial differentiation was determined by counting 200 cells after staining with antibodies against TuJ1 and GFAP. No differences in the differentiation ratios of neurons and astrocytes between Emx1+/+ and Emx1−/− group (E). Scale bar, 25 μm. N = 4 NSC samples/group, and each NSC sample was plated in 3–4 wells.
