Effect of FGF2-SPION on hPSCs migration and contractility. Representative microscopic images (A) and quantification (B) showing the effect FGF2 (250 ng/ml) and FGF2-SPIONs (equivalent to 250 ng/ml FGF2) on the migration of hPSCs after 12 h of incubation. Representative images (C) and quantitation (D) showing the effect of FGF2 (250 ng/ml) and FGF2-SPIONs (equivalent to 250 ng/ml FGF2) on the hPSCs contraction in collagen 3D gel after 96 h incubation with 5 ng/ml TGF-β compared to untreated 3D collagen gel with hPSCs. Data represents mean + SEM for at least 3 independent experiments. Statistical differences are *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001.
