Temporal Analyses of the Response of Intervertebral Disc Cells and Mesenchymal Stem Cells to Nutrient Deprivation

Figure 3

Temporal analysis of number of human NP cells and MSCs in response to altered FBS and glucose concentration, over 48 hours. Trends over 48 hours for human NP cells (a) and human MSCs (c) and at the end time point (±SEM) for human NP cells (b) and human MSCs (d), comparing FBS levels within glucose subgroups ((b1) and (d1)) and comparing glucose levels within FBS subgroups ((b2) and (d2)).
