Dexamethasone potentiated GA-induced mBMSC adipogenesis. (A) Oil red O staining of mBMSCs cultured in GA (50 μM) with the complete osteogenic medium or individual components. The oil red O–stained areas are quantified on the right (**p < 0.01; n = 3). (B) The experimental scheme for DEX and GA treatment. (C) mBMSCs treated with DEX followed by GA (50 μM) showed enhanced adipogenesis. The oil red O staining of mBMSC cultures at day 6; the positively stained areas are quantified on the right (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01; n = 3).
