Role of MSX1 in Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells
Figure 3
Effects of MSX1 knockdown on the expression of osteogenic markers in hDPSCs. (a) Alkaline phosphatase activity in cultures was determined on days 0–12 after exposure to osteogenesis-induction medium. (b) The mRNA levels of osteoblast-related genes, including RUNX2, BMP2, OSX, OCN, and ALPL, along with the MSX1 mRNA level were quantified by RT-qPCR on the indicated days. Values are averages ±SD for three cultures. ; .
