Development of a Functional Schwann Cell Phenotype from Autologous Porcine Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cells for Nerve Repair
Figure 5
Confocal photographs showing that BM-MNCs cultured in neurobasal media supplemented with NRG1-III express the p75(NGF) receptor. The addition of 10 nM NRG1-III for 48-hrs to 6-day-old cultures increased the expression of p75(NGF) (b) over untreated control cells (a); (c, d) are control cultures stained with only the secondary antibody. The nuclei (blue) were stained with DAPI.
