Figure 1.

The nucleus circularity index, with values closer to 1 indicate a higher circularity, of (A) human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and (B) human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) cultured on the MARC chip for 5 and 7 days, respectively. All data shown as average ± SD. Comparison of experimental replicas (A), N = 2 and (B), N = 3 with at least 100 cells analyzed in each of the experimental replica on each pattern type. ^*Represents statistical significance with p ≤ 0.05, ^**p ≤ 0.01, ^*** p ≤ 0.001.There was no statistical significant difference found between hESCs circularity on different pattern types.
