Figure 1. Cordycepin reduces the ratio of LSCs and induces Dkk-1 expression via autocrine and paracrine regulation.

Figure 1

(A) U937 and K562 cells were treated with 50 μM cordycepin for 24 h. Percentages of CD34+CD38 cells were determined by flow cytometry analysis. These results are from three independent experiments. Scale bars: mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001. (B) Upper panel, a flow chart of the experimental design: MSCs were incubated with MSC-CM, U937-CM and K562-CM for 48 h followed by 50 μM cordycepin for an additional 24 h. Expression of Dkk-1 in (lower panel) MSCs, U937 and K562 was determined by Q-PCR (N = 5). Scale bars: mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05.
