Human Periodontal Ligament Derived Progenitor Cells: Effect of STRO-1 Cell Sorting and Wnt3a Treatment on Cell Behavior
Figure 3
Representative results showed Wnt3a promoted proliferation and self-renewal ability of hPDLCs. (a) Wnt3a-treated cells displayed a significant increase in DNA content compared to untreated cells cultured in proliferation medium. (b) Wnt3a-treated cells exhibited a higher expression of Oct4, Nanog, and Sox2 after 5 days of culture. ; error bars represent standard deviation.
