Inhibition of Viability, Proliferation, Cytokines Secretion, Surface Antigen Expression, and Adipogenic and Osteogenic Differentiation of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells by Seven-Day Exposure to 0.5 T Static Magnetic Fields
Figure 6
Effect of seven-day exposure to 0.5 T SMF on adipogenic differentiation in ASCs and SPIOASCs. (a) Representative results of histochemical staining for Oil-o-red. (b) Quantification after normalization to levels from control ASCs. The Oil-o-red optical density value was significantly lower in the ASCs-SMF and SPIOASCs-SMF than in ASCs and SPIOASCs. (c) Representative results of RT-PCR for LPL and PPAR-γ. (d) Quantification after normalization to levels from control ASCs. The expression of mRNA for LPL and PPAR-γ was significantly lower in the ASCs-SMF and SPIOASCs-SMF than in ASCs and SPIOASCs. Scale bar represents 100 μm. versus ASCs or SPIOASCs.
