Development of a Functional Schwann Cell Phenotype from Autologous Porcine Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cells for Nerve Repair

Figure 4

Series of confocal photographs showing that BM-MNCs differentiate in neurobasal media to express Schwann cell markers. There was positive immunofluorescence staining for the Schwann cell markers GFAP, O4, and S100 in 8-day-old BM-MNC-derived Schwann cell cultures (a, b, c); (d, e, f) are control cultures stained with the secondary antibody only. Nuclei (blue) are stained with DAPI.
