Transdifferentiation of into erythrocytes. (a) Schematic of transdifferentiation strategy. (b) Phase-contrast images represented progressive generation of hHFMSC-derived erythroblasts in vitro (day 0, day 5, and day 23: original magnification ×200; day 3, day 7, day 10, day 15, and day 20: original magnification ×100). (c) Wright-Giemsa staining detected progressive generation of hHFMSC-derived erythroblasts in vitro (day 3, day 7, day 10, and day 20b: original magnification ×400; day 15 and day 20a: original magnification ×200).
