Fig 7

After primary culture, MSC (used as positive controls) and SSC were dissociated and plated into osteocyte, adipocyte and chondrocyte differentiating media. MSC (A-C) and SSC (D-F) show the ability to differentiate into osteocytes identified by calcium deposits (A, D; Alizarin Red staining), adipocytes (B, F; lipids stained by Oil RedO) and chondrocytes (C, F; matrix proteoglycans revealed by Alcian Blue staining).
