Asymmetric cell division and cardiomyogenic differentiation of CSP cells. A: flow cytometric analysis of numb and P-histone H3 stained ovine CSP cells and comparison of numb-positive P-histone H3-positive cell percentage. B: confocal microscopic images of ovine CSP cells in coculture with neonatal rat ventricular myocytes and comparison of CSP cardiomyogenic differentiation after a 6-day coculture with neonatal rat ventricular myocytes. GFP, green fluorescent protein; DAPI, 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole; α-SA, α-sarcomeric actinin. *P < 0.05.
