Hepatocyte-like cells feature of the differentiated cells during hepatogenic induction for 18 days. Morphological changing of MSCDHCs generated from WJMSCs-SUT1 ((a), (c), (e), and (g)) and WJMSCs-SUT2 ((b), (d), (f), and (h)) were observed following the differentiation period. Original magnifications: ×100 for all pictures. Bars indicate 100 μm.
