The Effect of Pulsatile Flow on bMSC-Derived Endothelial-Like Cells in a Small-Sized Artificial Vessel Made by 3-Dimensional Bioprinting

Figure 3

Effects of growth factor on endothelial cell-related protein expression by immunocytochemistry and Western blotting. The endothelial-like cells were negative in CD31 after 1 week (a–c) and positive in 1 month (d–f). The protein levels of CD31 and VE-cadherin increased in the growth medium (g). The mRNA expression levels of CD31 and VE-cadherin increased in the growth medium.
