Stemness Maintenance Properties in Human Oral Stem Cells after Long-Term Passage

Relative gene expression folds by qRT-PCR. Bar charts show the significant relative gene expression folds in (a) hGMSCs, (b) hPDLSCs, (c) and hDPSCs at P15 under culturing conditions compared to P2. Expression levels of transcripts at P2 and P15 are shown in blue and red, respectively. DataAssist software was employed to run a global normalization analysis by using GAPDH, 18s, and HPRT1 as selected internal controls. The reported transcripts evidenced a value < 0.05; values were adjusted using Benjamini-Hochberg FDR correction.
