Comparison of mean endothelial surface marker expression levels between our synergistic three-phase protocol and two N2B27 + StemPro protocols (high VEGF + forskolin protocol and DAPT protocol). Mean and standard deviation values were obtained from biological duplicates of differentiation experiments using CBIA-37 and CBIA-50 cell lines on day 5 of differentiation. Analysis was conducted via flow cytometry. The mean expression of surface markers CD31, CD144, CD34, and KDR was (A) 90% to 96% for our protocol, (B) 49% to 63% for the high VEGF + forskolin protocol, and (C) 44% to 54% for the DAPT protocol. Variability in the surface marker expression was lower for our protocol than the other tested protocols, as shown by the standard deviations.
