Morphological changes in differentiating mouse thymic mesenchymal stem cells. Schematic illustration of the adipogenic differentiation protocol and cellular morphological changes that occurred during the differentiation process 33 consecutive days after induction. Typically, mesenchymal stem cell preadipocyte commitment occurred in the first days (days 15), followed by the differentiation of preadipocytes into mature adipocytes with increasing lipid droplets. MSC: Mesenchymal stem cell.
