Chondrogenic differentiation of CD51+/CD140α+, CD271+, and STRO-1+/CD146+ DMSCs. (a) Alcian blue staining after cells were induced to differentiate into chondrogenic lineages for 28 days. (b) Quantification of Alcian blue. (c) mRNA expression of Sox9 after 0 and 28 days of chondrogenic induction. Values were normalized to CD51+/CD140α+ DMSCs at day 0. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.001. CMI, chondrogenic induction medium; DMSC, dental mesenchymal stem cell.
