Human Three Germ Layer 3-Color Immunocytochemistry Kit Summary

Kit Summary

To analyze germ layer cells differentiated from human pluripotent stem cells.

Key Benefits

  • Verifies human stem cell pluripotency
  • Labels cells of the ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm
  • Can be used for simultaneous 3-color staining
 

 

Why Use Molecular Markers to Verify Human Stem Cell Pluripotency?

Research studies using embryonic stem (ES) or induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells most often require weeks of cell culture before an experimental hypothesis can be tested.

Thus, the ability to verify pluripotency at an early stage in the experimental process is an important time saving step. Pluripotency status can be evaluated by the presence of stem cell markers and/or the ability of stem cells to differentiate into cells of the three germ layers. To determine if a cell is truly a pluripotent stem cell, it is important to verify its ability to differentiate into each of the three germ layers.

3-Color ICC using germ layer markers:

  • Evaluates the pluripotency status of the starting stem cell population.
  • Provides increased confidence in pluripotent status through the use of multiple markers for each germ layer.
  • Ensures efficient use of time and reagents by utilizing single-step staining.
  • Can be performed in randomly differentiated samples to simultaneously detect one marker from each germ layer.

Cell Differentiation/ Maturation Verification of Germ Layer Markers in Differentiated Pluripotent Stem Cells. View Larger

Verification of Germ Layer Markers in Differentiated Pluripotent Stem Cells. iPS2 human induced pluripotent stem cells were differentiated into each of the three germ layers using the base media and differentiation supplements provided in the Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Functional Identification Kit (Catalog # SC027). Germ layer differentiation was subsequently verified using the six fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies provided in the Human Three Germ Layer 3-Color Immunocytochemistry Kit (Catalog # SC022). Ectoderm differentiated cells were simultaneously stained with NorthernLights (NL) fluorochrome NL557-conjugated Otx2 (red) and NL493-conjugated SOX1 (green). Mesoderm differentiated cells were simultaneously stained with NL557-conjugated Brachyury (red) and NL637-conjugated HAND1 (green). Endoderm differentiated cells were simultaneously stained with NL637-conjugated SOX17 (red) and NL493-conjugated GATA-4 (green). All nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue). Nuclear expression of each marker was detected in their respective cell lineage.

Cell Differentiation/ Maturation Random Differentiation within a BG01V Human Embryonic Stem Cell-derived Embryoid Body. View Larger

Random Differentiation within a BG01V Human Embryonic Stem Cell-derived Embryoid Body. BG01V human embryonic stem cell-derived embryoid bodies were grown on plates coated with Cultrex®Stem Cell Qualified Basement Membrane Extract (Catalog # 3434-005-02). Random differentiation was detected by simultaneous 3-color staining using three fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies provided in the Human Three Germ Layer 3-Color Immunocytochemistry Kit (Catalog # SC022). Ectoderm derivatives were detected with NorthernLights (NL) fluorochrome NL557-conjugated Otx2 (red), mesoderm differentiated cells with NL637-conjugated HAND1 (white), and ectoderm derivatives with NL493-conjugated GATA-4 (green). The nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue).

FAQs

  1. In Figure 1 on the Datasheet for Catalog # SC022, why is the staining produced by the antibody conjugated to NL637 dye green in one image and red in another image?

    • NL637 is assigned a different color (green) than its natural color in one of the the images in order to obtain good contrast with the co-staining done for another marker in the same sample. Red is the natural color for NL637.
