5-FU impairs the hematopoietic regulatory ability of BA-MSCs. (a) Flow cytometric plots of BMCs cocultured with DMSO-treated BA-MSCs and 5-FU-treated BA-MSCs for 2 days. Flow cytometric plots are gated on lineage-negative BMCs and showing cell subsets of HPC (Lin-Sca-1-c-Kit+), HSC (Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+), LT-HSC (Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+CD34lowFlk2low), ST-HSC (Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+CD34+Flk2low), MPP (Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+CD34+Flk2+), CMP (Lin-Sca-1-c-Kit+CD34+CD16/32low), GMP (Lin-Sca-1-c-Kit+CD34+CD16/32+), and MEP (Lin-Sca-1-c-Kit+CD34lowCD16/32low) (). (b, c) Flow cytometry analysis of the percentage of HPC, HSC, LT-HSC, ST-HSC, MPP, CMP, GMP, and MEP in the BMCs cocultured with DMSO-treated BA-MSCs and 5-FU-treated BA-MSCs for 2 days (). (d) Gene expressions of Scf, Cxcl12, Thpo, Csfg, Csfm, Csfgm, and Il6 in DMSO-treated BA-MSCs and 5-FU-treated BA-MSCs were detected by qRT-PCR (). (e) Gene expressions of Scf, Cxcl12, Thpo, Csfg, Csfm, Csfgm, and Il6 in control mice and 5-FU-induced myelosuppression mice were detected by qRT-PCR (). All data are presented as . Statistics: unpaired Student’s -test (ns: not significant; , , and ).
