Differential Gene Expression Profiling of Enriched Human Spermatogonia after Short- and Long-Term Culture

Figure 3

Germ-, pluripotency-, and fibroblast-related gene expression profiling of samples with 50 spermatogonia from short-term (patient 195) and long-term cultures (patients 184, 194) in comparison with human embryonic stem cells and human testis fibroblasts with Fluidigm BioMark system. (a) Dendogram and PCA. Heatmaps ranging from strongly expressed (red) to absent (green) with hierarchical clustering are shown (b) for all analysed genes, (c) for germ- and (d) for pluripotency-associated genes.
