Morphological characterization of hBM-MNC immunomagnetic fractions. Two-step immunomagnetic hBM-MNC cell separation gave rise to six fractions, including CD105+MSCA-1neg, CD31+MSCA-1neg, CD31+CD14negCD66neg (red boxes in A), double negative fractions (yellow boxes in A), MSCA-1+-positive control, and CD14/66+-negative control (green boxes in A). May Grünwald–Giemsa staining of MSCA-1+-positive control revealed the cell stromal appearance. CD105+ fraction included erythroid elements as pronormoblasts (1), basophilic (2), polychromatophilic (3), and orthochromic (4) normoblasts. CD31+MSCA-1neg fraction appeared to be constituted by myeloid (1), monocytoid (2), and lymphoid (3) elements (B, black scale bar: 50 μm). Under MPCs/MSCs permissive culture conditions, at day 7 MPC-like cells were detected in CD31+ fractions, as well as in the CD105negMSCA-1neg (CE, white scale bar: 200 μm). hBM-MNC, human bone marrow mononuclear cell; MPCs, mesodermal progenitor cells; MSCs, mesenchymal stromal cells.
