Icariin Promotes the Migration of BMSCs In Vitro and In Vivo via the MAPK Signaling Pathway

Figure 1

Characteristics of rabbit BMSCs. (a) Few BMSCs grew via static adherence cultured in growth medium in the primary phase. (b) The growth of BMSCs from embryoid body (EB) formation, reaching 80% confluence at day 7. (c) BMSCs at passage 3, reaching confluence 90% after incubation for 48 h. (d) Osteoplastic differentiation revealed by alizarin red staining after 2 weeks. (e) Osteoplastic differentiation revealed by alkaline phosphatase staining after 2 weeks. (f) Chondrogenic differentiation revealed by alcian blue staining after 2 weeks.
