Effects of FTY720 (Fingolimod) on Proliferation, Differentiation, and Migration of Brain-Derived Neural Stem Cells

Figure 2

The proliferation of NSCs in the presence of FTY720. ((a)-(b)) Representative images of neurospheres and number quantification in response to FTY720. Bar = 500 μm. Arrows indicated lagers sizes of the neurospheres. (c) Proliferation rate indexes in the presence of FTY720. Fold changes in proliferation were calculated by the absorbance of 450 nm of CCK-8 assay. Data represent the mean ± SD; in each group; compared with control group; compared with 1 nM FTY720 group, by ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s multiple comparison tests.
