Dragging Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells with the Aid of Supramolecular Assemblies of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes, Molecular Magnets, and Peptides in a Magnetic Field

<div>Human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) characterization. (a) Light micrograph of hASCs cultured in basal medium. (b) Cell phenotype analyzed by flow cytometry, expression of the selected mesenchymal stem cell, and hematopoietic and human leukocyte antigens markers are depicted with representative histograms. The white peak indicates the isotype-matched monoclonal antibody control. The black peak indicates positively stained cells. The cell populations expressed CD 29, CD 44, CD 73, and HLA-ABC and did not express CD 45, CD 34, and HLA-DR. (c) Multipotentiality of hASCs. Oil red O staining confirming adipogenesis, Alcian blue staining verifying chondrogenesis and von Kossa staining confirming osteogenesis.</div>
