STAMBP expression during human cortical development. (A) STAMBP expression in the human cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum. Data were downloaded from Allen Brain Atlas (available from: http://www.brain-map.org; Ensemble ID: ENSG00000124356). pcw, post-conceptional weeks; mos, months; yrs, years. (B) Schematic representation of the culture system described in detail in Section “Patient and methods.” Examples of each stage are shown. Scale bars, 200 μm. (C) Immunofluorescent staining of hCOs of day 21 for neural stem cell markers Left column: SOX2, PAX6, and DAPI; middle column: SOX2, DCX, and DAPI; right column: SOX2, NeuN, and DAPI. Scale bars, 100 μm. (D) STAMBP mRNA expression in the different differentiated stages of hCOs. Mean ± SEM from three independent experiments.
