Comparative Effects of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Microglial Activation

Figure 1

Characterization and flow cytometry of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSC) during expansion in serum-free (sf) or serum-containing medium. ((a)–(e)) Comparative flow cytometry analysis of cell surface markers in BMMSC or BMMSC-sf. (f) Phase-contrast micrograph of BMMSC and BMMSC-sf. (g) Adipocyte differentiation of BMMSC and BMMSC-sf. (h) Oligodendroglial (GalC-immunoreactive) differentiation of BMMSC for 3 or 7 days. (i) Cytometric analysis of cell surface markers in BMMSC-sf of the first four passages (P). ^∗𝑃<0.05 compared with P0.
