From: Transdifferentiation of pancreatic progenitor cells to hepatocyte-like cells is not serum-dependent when facilitated by extracellular matrix proteins

Figure 3

Gene expression of pancreatic (pancreatic lipase, pancreas-specific transcription factor 1a, amylase) and hepatocytic markers (hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 α, albumin, tyrosine aminotransferase, cytochrome P450 2C11 and 2E1) in undifferentiated AR42J-B13 cells and cells subjected to differentiation-inducing conditions on day 5. The data are expressed as means ± SEM with n = 3–5 and *p < 0.05 compared with undifferentiated cells. Undiff - undifferentiated cells; Diff control - differentiation control, with FBS, on plastic; FBS Fibro - differentiation medium, with FBS, on fibronectin; SF Fibro - differentiation medium, serum-free, on fibronectin; FBS Lam - differentiation medium, with FBS, on laminin; SF Lam - differentiation medium, serum-free, on laminin.
