Figure 4. Comparative global transcriptome analyses of NSC lines.
(A) Hierarchical clustering of all genes using complete linkage and the Pearson distance analyses. (B) Scatter plot comparing XiPS-t-NSCs and NSCs, mESC-NSCs and NSCs, XiPS-7 and NSCs, and mESCs and NSCs. Gene expression levels are presented on a log2 scale. (C) Number of differentially expressed probes (fold change [FC] > ± 2 in comparison with that of NSCs. mESCs: Mouse embryonic stem cells; XiPS-7: Partially reprogrammed cells; mESC-NSCs: NSCs differentiated from mESCs (in vitro); XiPS-t-NSCs: NSCs differentiated from XiPS-7 by teratoma formation (in vivo); NSCs: 13.5 dpc embryo brain-derived NSCs.
