Neovascularization within implants of BCP with MSC in the subcutis of nude mice after 8 weeks. (A): CD146 immunostaining for pericytes on sections through implants with BCP biomaterial (gray) and MSC from three bone marrow donors (BMSC) and four adipose tissue donors (ATSC) or a mixture of both. Blood vessels are stained in brown. Scale bars represent 50 μm. (B): Histomorphometry quantification of the number of blood vessels/mm2 with * indicating statistical differences between groups (p < .05). Data are presented as mean ± SE of the mean. Abbreviations: ATSC, adipose tissue‐derived stem cells; BCP, biphasic calcium phosphate; BMSC, bone marrow‐derived stem cells.
