Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Isolated from Patients with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Exhibit Senescence Phenomena

Figure 2

AAA-ASCs displayed increased cellular senescence. (a) Cell growth curves show the lower proliferative ability of AAA-ASCs compared to that of H-ASCs. (b) Representative images of cell morphology and quantitative analysis of cell size in H-ASCs and AAA-ASCs. . (c) Representative images of SA-β-gal staining and quantitative analysis of SA-β-gal-positive cells in H-ASCs and AAA-ASCs. . (d) Western blotting and quantitative analysis of the expression levels of p53 and p21 in H-ASCs and AAA-ASCs. (e) Immunostaining of the proliferation marker Ki67 and quantitative analysis of Ki67-positive cells in H-ASCs and AAA-ASCs. . Data are expressed as . . .
