Prospective isolation and global gene expression analysis of definitive and visceral endoderm
Open accessAbstract
In spite of the therapeutic importance of endoderm derivatives such as the pancreas, liver, lung, and intestine, there are few molecular markers specific for early endoderm. In order to identify endoderm-specific genes as well as to define transcriptional differences between definitive and visceral endoderm, we performed microarray analysis on E8.25 definitive and visceral endoderm. We have developed an early endoderm gene expression signature, and clarified the transcriptional similarities and differences between definitive and visceral endoderm. Additionally, we have developed methods for flow cytometric isolation of definitive and visceral endoderm. These results shed light on the mechanism of endoderm formation and should facilitate investigation of endoderm formation from embryonic stem cells.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
