Fig 2. Effects of PFOS on pluripotency and expressions of miR-145, miR-490-3p in mESCs.

Cells were cultured with various concentrations of PFOS (0.2 μM, 2 μM, 20 μM, and 200 μM) or DMSO as control for 24 h. (A) Oct-4/Sox-2/Nanog mRNA levels were determined by quantitative real-time PCR using a housekeeping gene GAPDH as an internal control. (B) The protein levels of Oct-4/Sox-2/Nanog were determined by Western blot analysis using GAPDH as an internal control. (C) miRNA levels (miR-145, miR-490-3p) were determined by quantitative real-time PCR and were normalized to U6 as an internal control. Each data point was normalized to the control (DMSO) and represented the means ± S.E. from three independent experiments. (D) Relative protein levels of Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog. *indicates significant difference when the values were compared to that of the control (p<0.05).
