iPSC Characterization: Direct Differentiation to Three Germ Layers

Figure 1:  Direct differentiation of ASE-9280 GMP Grade iPSCs to three germ layers. Staining for lineage-specific biomarkers of three germ layers after direct differentiation of the GMP hiPSC line, ASE-9280. The ASE-9280 GMP hiPSC line was differentiated to specific lineages of the germ layers using well-established and optimized protocols. Immunostaining for biomarkers of each lineage was performed. Cells were also co-stained with nuclear marker, DAPI (blue). Biomarkers: Ectoderm (EC) marker: Pax6 (green) and Tuji (red); Mesoderm (ME) marker: Brachyury (red) and GATA-4 (green); Endoderm (EN) marker: Fox2A (red) and Sox-17 (green).
