Figure 3

Expression of pluripotency-associated genes (Oct4, Nanog) and cardiac-specific transcription factors (Nkx2.5, Mef2c, GATA4, Tbx5). (A) Quantitative RT-PCR analyses of freshly isolated atrial cells (n = 5/group). (B) Outgrowth cells (n = 5/group). 2−ΔΔCt values for ALDHhi vs. ALDHlo cells are shown. (C). Freshly isolated ALDHhi cells. Immunostaining for Nkx2.5 (red), GATA4 (green), and Mef2c (green); DAPI nuclear counterstaining (blue). Nkx2.5/GATA4 and Nkx2.5/Mef2c double stainings are shown.
