The function of CRYAB in osteogenic differentiation in vivo. A, Representative images of H&E staining of transplants in the sh‐CRYAB group and sh‐Control group. The new formed bone was denoted by black arrows. Scale bar represents 100 µm. B, The bone formation was measured qualitatively. C, Representative images of H&E staining of transplants in the CRYAB group and Vector group. The new formed bone was denoted by black arrows. Scale bar represents 100 µm. D, The bone formation was measured qualitatively. E&F, Representative images of Oil Red O staining in different groups after BMSCs were treated for 14 d with adipogenic induction medium. G&H, The qRT‐PCR was used to measure the expression of PPARG in BMSCs at mRNA level during the adipogenic differentiation process. I&J, The Western blotting was used to measure the expression of PPARG in BMSCs at protein level at day 15 of the adipogenic differentiation
