3D Matrigel promotes aggregation and upregulates expression of markers of TM cells, ESCs and NC. P3 cells cultured on 2D Matrigel in MESCM + 5% FBS were reseeded in 3D Matrigel with or without Noggin before morphological analysis by phase contrast microscopy (C, scale bar: 20 µm), immunostaining to Oct4, Sox2, Nanog, Myc, or KLF4 (C, nuclear counterstained by Hoechst 33342, scale bar: 20 µm), and qRT-PCR for TM markers (A) and ESC and neural crest markers (B, n = 3, **P < 0.01 and ***P < 0.001) by setting the expression level for 2D Matrigel as the control.
