MSC secreted factors upregulate GFAP expression by adult NSC. RNA was extracted from neurospheres cultured in control medium or MSC-CM, and qPCR was performed to evaluate the expression of GFAP, nestin, GAP43, and SOX2. Relative expression was calculated in relation to GAPDH. Data expressed as mean of ± SEM of triplicates. , .
