Fig. 4

a Representative 2D gastruloids immunostained for DAPI positive nuclei (blue), SOX2 (green) and BRACH (magenta) proteins 48h after the start of BMP4 stimulation (colony diameter 700 μm; scale bar 100 μm). b Quantification of SOX2 and BRACH radial profiles of expression in human 2D gastruloids of panel a. For each stain, radial profiles are normalized by the maximum of the control profile. Shaded areas represent the 1st and 3rd quartiles of the individual colony profiles with a line at the mean. CTRLsh: n = 64, GPC4sh n = 67 colonies from three biological replicates. c Representative 2D gastruloids immunostained for DAPI positive nuclei (blue), SOX2 (green) and SOX17 (magenta) 48h after the start of BMP4 stimulation (colony diameter 700 µm, scale bar 100 μm). d Quantification of SOX2 and SOX17 radial profiles of expression in human 2D gastruloids of panel c. For each stain, radial profiles are normalized by the maximum of the control profile. Shaded areas represent the 1st and 3rd quartiles of the individual colony profiles with a line at the mean. CTRLsh: n = 60, GPC4sh n = 62 colonies from 3 biological replicates. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
