Effects of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells Isolated from Wharton’s Jelly of the Umbilical Cord and Conditioned Media on Skeletal Muscle Regeneration Using a Myectomy Model

Figure 7

IHC sections of tibialis anterior (TA) muscles from the Control and treatment groups (after choosing fibrin glue—Tisseellyo as the preferred vehicle) with anti-human Pax7 antibody evaluated at d15 postmyectomy (magnification: 200x) (a–d). The Pax7⁺ labeling index was defined by the average number of Pax7⁺ positive nuclei which was determined by counting 5 selected fields at high power field magnification (×400) in each sample (e). Scale bar: 50 μm.
