Fig. 1. Effects of serum on endoderm development and hepatocyte differentiation.
EBs were differentiated either in serum for the entire six-day period (serum)
or initiated in serum for 2.5 days and then passaged to serum-free cultures
for the remaining 3.5 days (SF). (A) RT-PCR expression analysis of different
aged EBs. (B) FACS analysis of GFP-Bry expression in EBs differentiated in
serum-containing (serum) or serum-containing followed by serum-free media
(serum/SF). (C) Hematopoietic progenitor analysis of EBs generated under
different conditions. Numbers represent colonies per 1x105
cells plated. Data represents mean±s.e.m. (n=3). Ep, primitive
erythroid colonies; Mac, macrophage colonies; Mix, multilineage colonies. (D)
RT-PCR analysis of replated cultures from day 10 EBs generated in serum/SF
(S/SF) cultures. EB were replated for 4 days on matrigel with dexamethasone
(107 M) in the presence of serum. S, replated cells from day
10 EBs differentiated in the presence of serum for the entire time; FL, day 14
fetal liver; AL, adult liver.
