Multilineage differentiation analysis of SCAP-Ss and DPSCs. (a) Adipogenic differentiation potential of SCAP-S and DPSC-derived cells was identified by Oil Red O staining (μm). Undifferentiated SCAP-Ss and DPSCs were served as the negative control (NC). (b) Statistical analysis of Oil Red O staining data in (a). All data were shown as the (). NS: not significant. (c) Osteogenic differentiation potential of SCAP-S and DPSC-derived cells was identified by Alizarin Red staining (μm). Undifferentiated SCAP-Ss and DPSCs were served as the negative control (NC). (d) Statistical analysis of Alizarin Red staining data in (c). All data were shown as the (). . (e) qRT-PCR analysis of the osteogenic markers (OCN, RUNX2, BMP4, ALP, COL1A1, and OPN) in undifferentiated SCAP-S (day 0) and SCAP-S-derived cells (day 14). All data were shown as the (). . All values are normalized to the day 0 group (=1). (f) qRT-PCR analysis of the abovementioned osteogenic markers in SCAP-S and DPSC-derived cells (day 14). All data were shown as the (). . All values are normalized to the DPSC group (=1).
