Figure 1

Characterization of SCAPs: (a) isolated SCAPs were positive for STRO-1 by immunocytochemistry; (b) isolated SCAPs were negative for CK by immunocytochemistry; (c) PBS served as a negative control; (d) flow cytometric analysis revealed that cultured SCAPs are positive for CD73 (99.99%), CD105 (99.99%), CD90 (99.94%), and CD146 (91.84%), but negative for CD34 (0.84%) and CD45 (2.97%). Mouse IgG isotype control antibodies conjugated to FITC, PE, APC, or PerCP were used as negative controls. Scale bars: 100 μm.
