Expression of Neural Markers by Undifferentiated Mesenchymal-Like Stem Cells from Different Sources
Figure 4
Spontaneous coexpression of neural markers by undifferentiated hS-MSCs (P8) after 14 days of culture. Most of cells were βIII-tubulin positive ((a), (d): red) and the numerous NeuN-positive cells ((b): green) were always βIII-tubulin positive as shown in merge (c). The few nestin-positive cells ((e), (h), and (k): green) were always βIII-tubulin positive as shown in merge (f), while only in some cases they were positive, respectively, for NeuN ((g): red) and GFAP ((j): red) as shown in merges (i) and (l). Bars: 50 μm.
