Characterization of DF-, PBMC-, FLS-, and CBMC-hiPSCs. (a) The morphology of each primary cell type: dermal fibroblast (DF), peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC), fibroblast-like synoviocyte (FLS), and cord blood mononuclear cell (CBMC). (b) The morphology of the generated hiPSCs. (c) Immunohistology image of the hiPSC colonies stained against OCT4 and TRA-1-60. (d) Image of colonies stained against alkaline phosphatase (AS). (e) Relative expression of pluripotent markers in each cell line and primary cells (; ; and ).
