Overexpression of PRDX2 in Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Enhances the Therapeutic Effect in a Neurogenic Erectile Dysfunction Rat Model by Inhibiting Ferroptosis

Figure 1

Characterization of ADSCs and PRDX2-ADSCs. (a, b) Morphology of ADSCs in passage 0 and passage 3. (c, d) Osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation assays of ADSCs. Representative images of ADSCs induced to differentiate into osteocytes (stained with alizarin red S) and adipocytes (stained with oil red O). (e) Flow cytometric analysis of surface markers on ADSCs. (f, g) Immunofluorescence analysis of the GFP expression in PRDX2-ADSCs and vehicle-ADSCs. (h, i) Western blot analysis showed that the level of PRDX2 markedly increased in transfected ADSCs (). .
