Evaluation of Tissue Homogenization to Support the Generation of GMP-Compliant Mesenchymal Stromal Cells from the Umbilical Cord

Figure 6

Umbilical cord MSCs exhibit trilineage differentiation potential. Representative images from passage 3 demonstrate (a) osteogenic differentiation using Alizarin Red staining, (b) adipogenic differentiation using Oil Red O, and (c) chondrogenic differentiation using Alcian Blue staining of chondrogenic pellets generated via micromass cultures. Bone marrow MSCs were used as positive control for demonstrating trilineage differentiation.
