Lipogems Product Treatment Increases the Proliferation Rate of Human Tendon Stem Cells without Affecting Their Stemness and Differentiation Capability

Figure 3

Effects of the Lipogems product on hTSCs apoptosis. Flow cytometric analysis of hTSCs survival rate at 0, 48, and 96 h after the treatment with the Lipogems product (right panel) as compared to control cells (left panel), through double staining with Annexin V-FITC and PI. Early apoptotic cells (Annexin V-positive/PI-negative) are localized in the lower right region, late apoptotic and necrotic cells (Annexin V-positive/PI-positive) are localized in the upper regions, and vital cells (double negative) are localized in the lower left region.
