Figure 4. Different transcriptomic features of progenitor cells in FCTs and SCTs.

Figure 4.

(A-B) Analysis of the progenitor cell population revealed 3 sub-groups, namely endocrine progenitors, mucin producing cells, and posterior pituitary cells. (C-D) The mucin producing and posterior pituitary cells were restricted to two of the FCT samples (FCT4 & FCT1), suggesting these populations may have been due to sample contamination from resected tumor-adjacent normal tissues. (E) Further analysis of endocrine progenitor subpopulation revealed different transcriptional profiles between FCTs and SCTs. p<10−4.
