Osteogenic markers in human adipose stem cells (hASCs) cultured on biomorphic HA (B-HA), sintered HA (S-HA) biomaterials. (A) Alizarin Red staining is shown in this panel, in experimental conditions tested (10× magnification upper figures, 4x magnification lower figures). (B) The matrix mineralization was evaluated by Alizarin red staining, whereas its quantification was carried out spectrophotometrically. * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01 (ANOVA test). Matrix mineralization data was reported as optical density. (C) The osteocalcin (OCN) protein levels were quantified by ELISAs. OCN protein was reported as ng of Osteocalcin/μg of total protein. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01.
