Figure 7

Engraftment of human cells. (A): In situ hybridization of the human Alu sequence showing some human cells (brown—highlighted with red arrow) present in BMSC implants after 8 weeks, and mouse cells (purple), whereas no human cells were found in the ATSC group. Biomaterial is shown with an asterisk. Scale bars represent 100 μm. (B): Evaluation of human BMSC and ATSC number persisting in vivo on the scaffold, at T0, 24 hours, 1, and 4 weeks post‐graft, using human‐specific quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction assay. Data are represented as mean ± SE of the mean. *, p < .05. Abbreviations: ATSC, adipose tissue‐derived stem cells; BCP, biphasic calcium phosphate; BMSC, bone marrow‐derived stem cells.
