Fig. 3. Differentiation of hPSCs is reduced under simulated microgravity (sμg) conditions.

Fig. 3

hPSCs were cultured under sμg or 1g for 48 h with a medium that sustains their self-renewal, followed by a further 48 h of culture with a differentiation medium to induce (A) trophectoderm and (B) neuroectoderm differentiation. RT-qPCR analysis of representative genes related to pluripotency, trophectoderm, and neuroectoderm indicated that differentiation under sμg condition is reduced compared to 1g condition. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.005 (n = 3; unpaired t test). Error bars in graphs represent the SEM of the group.
