Effects of NMDA receptor activation on HGF expression in BM-MSCs. BM-MSCs were treated with 3 and 10 mM NMDA for 24 h, or were pre-incubated with 50 μM MK801 for 30 min prior to 10 mM NMDA treatment. (A) HGF protein expression in BM-MSCs was detected by western blot analysis. (B) ELISA was used to detect HGF secretion in BM-MSCs. Data are presented as the means ± standard error of the mean, n=3. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 vs. control; #P<0.05 vs. 10 mM NMDA. BM-MSCs, bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells; HGF, hepatocyte growth factor; NMDA, N-methyl-D-aspartate.
