Genetic stability evaluation. (a) The expression levels of p53, ARF, and c-myc in aBMSCs were unchanged over time and under osteogenic induction. (The term “induced” denotes aBMSCs at passage 3 that were cultured on nHAC/PLA scaffolds in osteogenic induction medium.) (b) aBMSCs at passage 4 that were cultured on nHAC/PLA in osteogenic induction medium exhibited a normal karyotype.
