Rat BMSC where cultured with varying doses of Noni (50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200 and 250 μg/ml) for 24 h. Noni at a concentration of 200μg/ml significantly increased the proliferation of BMSC. MTT assay was performed to measure the cell proliferation as described in Materials and Methods. The data are mean±SD, n=6. *p<0.01 and ^#p<0.001 as compared with BMSC (BMSC-bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells).
