Gene_xpression plots of AVE (Cer1 and Dkk1), visceral_ndoderm (Eomes, Foxa1 and Ttr), and_isceral_ndoderm and EPI (Nodal) markers along EPI, and PrE and visceral_ndoderm lineages from E3.5_E5.5.SOX2 and GATA6 were used as EPI and PrE lineage markers, respectively;ICM cell-fate specification is driven, in part, by the lineage-specific transcription factors GATA6 and NANOG, which are co-expressed in uncommitted ICM and exclusively expressed in—and required for—PrE and EPI, respectively |
