Sphingosine-1-phosphate/S1P Receptors Signaling Modulates Cell Migration in Human Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Figure 2

S1P-induced migration of human BMSCs via cell surface receptor. (a) The representative images of serum-starved BMSC migration stimulated with BSA or 1 nM S1P for 4 h. (b)-(c) Serum-starved BMSCs were allowed to migrate for 4 h in the presence of varying concentrations of S1P and H2S1P, as indicated. Migrated cells in a random fields (b) or migration index (fold over basal, (c)) shown were counted in 10 random fields per filter for each condition. Data are presented as the mean ± SD. , compared with control.
