Characterization of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Different Tissues and Their Membrane Encasement for Prospective Transplantation Therapies

Figure 4

Adipogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. Human mesenchymal stem cells were subjected to adipogenic differentiation by using Mesencult Adipogenic Differentiation Medium for 21 days in culture. Lipids in cells were stained with Oil Red O Stain. (a) Adipose tissue-derived; (b) amniotic tissue-derived; (c) bone marrow-derived; (d) chorionic tissue-derived; (e) liver-derived; (f) umbilical cord-derived. Left panels: positive adipogenic-induced; right panels: negative controls noninduced. Phase contrast microscopy.
