Differentiation of hMSC spheroids cultured under MG conditions
. (A) Immunohistochemistry analysis of spheroids for stem cells makers CD44, CD133, CD166, and differentiation markers von Kossa, oil red O, collagen-II showed that day 3 spheroids retained CD44, CD133, and CD166 expression and lacked differentiation markers. (B) Day 10 spheroids retain CD44 expression and were positive for oil red O staining. Images shown are representative of 4 individual experiments.
