Figure 6

Comparison of growth kinetics and absolute telomere length (aTL) of cardiac atrial appendage stem cells ( CASC s) expanded in medium enriched with platelet plasma supernatant (PPS) or foetal calf serum (FCS). Graphs illustrating cumulative cell count (a) and PDL (b) of expanded CASCs (P2–P9) in medium enriched with FCS and PPS. Data represent mean ± SEM. In general, at each passage N = 4, except for P2 N = 1 and P9 N = 2 or N = 3 for respectively FCS and PPS. Graphs illustrative of individual (grey lines) and average (bold red line) aTL evolutions with increasing passages (c). No significant differences were detected between aTL of CASCs cultured in FCS‐ (top), PPS‐ (bottom) enriched medium of the same passage (P = 0.134).
