Figure 1. Comparison of hepatic differentiation of iPSCs and hESCs.

Figure 1

(a) Scheme of comparative hepatic differentiation of iPSCs and hESCs. iPSCs and hESCs are differentiated into HLCs which can be compared versus each other and versus fetal liver (FL) and PHHs. Also the intermediate stages DE and HE are captured and thus can be subjected to comparative analysis. Hierarchical clustering of hESC (b) and iPSC (c) differentiation into HLCs was performed via pvclust using 1000 bootstrap samples. „au“ (approximately unbiased) is computed by multiscale bootstrap resampling and „bp“ (bootstrap probability) by normal bootstrapping. Red rectangles mark clusters with AU larger than 95%. Thus the dendrogram is with one exception in hESC (98%) at 100% supported by data. All replicates cluster together. HLCs cluster apart from hESCs/iPSCs, DE and HE. Fetal liver and PHH cluster together and separated from the hESC/iPSC-derived hepatic differentiation stages.
