Fig. 1From: Effect of Osteoking on the osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation potential of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in vitroIdentification of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. a Dual-staining of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rbMSCs) with CD44/DAPI, CD19/DAPI, CD45/DAPI, CD105/DAPI, CD73/DAPI, CD34/DAPI and CD90/DAPI. b Cell morphology before induction in bright light. Three-lineage differentiation of rat mesenchymal stem cells. Osteogenic differentiation is determined by Alizarin red staining, adipogenic differentiation is determined by Oil Red O staining, and chondrogenic differentiation is identified by Alcian blue staining. c qRT-PCR analysis of OSX levels upon osteogenic differentiation,, PPARγ upon adipose differentiation and COL2A1 levels upon chondrogenic differentiation. ***p < 0.001, n = 3, when samples were compared to Control groupBack to article page
