Effects of BMS-833923 treatment on human bone marrow skeletal (mesenchymal) stem cell (hMSC) functions in vitro. hMSCs were induced to osteoblast differentiation in the presence of BMS-833923 (3.0 μM) or vehicle (DMSO), and osteoblast differentiation was determined by cytochemical staining with Alizarin red for an in vitro formed mineralized matrix (a) and expression of osteoblast-specific genes by quantitative RT-PCR (b). Magnification: 10x. Data are presented as mean ± SEM, n = 6. P < 0.05; ∗∗∗P < 0.0005. (c) Expression of GLI1 and PCTH1 in hMSCs treated with BMS-833923 (3.0 μM) for 24 hours and measured using qRT-PCR, n = 6. Abbreviations: ALP—alkaline phosphatase; COL1A1—collagen Type I Alpha 1; ON—osteonectin; DMSO—dimethyl sulfoxide; GLI1—GLI Family Zinc Finger 1; PTCH1—patched 1.
