Combined Effects of Surface Morphology and Mechanical Straining Magnitudes on the Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells without Using Biochemical Reagents
Figure 5
Gene expression of MSCs. (a) Gene expression profiles for each marker with/without mechanical stimuli or microgrooves. The expression levels of each gene are normalized by the expression of GAPDH; (b) smooth muscle cell-related genes; (c) osteoblast-related genes. Days 5 and 8 represent the time points immediately after stimuli ceased and 3 days after stimuli ceased, respectively. (All data are represented as mean ± SD. , * denotes .)
