Genes are listed in the second column in bold and italics. Each gene is a marker for cell types abbreviated in the first column: N, neurons; IN, immature neurons; DN, dopaminergic neurons; ON, oligodendrocytes and neurons; O, oligodendrocytes; G, glia; A, astrocytes. Cell lines and days of differentiation are listed in the first- and second rows. Gene expression values were determined using qPCR. Gene expression values below the limit of detection were set to 1.0 (Ct > 36 were trimmed to Ct = 36 and set to 1). Numbers represent mRNA abundance 2^(36-Normalized Ct(gene)). >Five-fold and >25-fold increases in expression compared to day 0 are highlighted in pink or red, respectively.
