SS-hAFSCs and RS-hAFSCs differ for the expression of CD105 and CD90. (a) Isolation and representative inverted light microscopy images of human mid-trimester round-shaped (RS-hAFSCs) and spindle-shaped (SS-hAFSCs) amniotic fluid stem cells. (b) Example confocal immunostaining images demonstrating cytoplasmic CD117 staining (in green) in SS-hAFSCs and RS-hAFSCs counterstained with nuclear DAPI (blue). (c) Flow cytometry showing expression of CD73 and absence of expression of CD34 and CD45 in SS-hAFSCs and RS-hAFSCs, with only SS-hAFSCs expressing the cell surface markers CD90 and CD105. The red tracing shows the isotype control and the blue tracing shows the primary antibody.
