Exosomes derived from M2 macrophages inhibited adipogenic differentiation of BMSCs. (A, B) Adipogenic proteins, C/EBPβ and PPARγ, were measured by western blotting analysis and quantified. Control group was BMSCs treated in adipogenic inducer. (C) Osteogenic genes, C/EBPβ and PPARγ, were measured by RT-PCR analysis. Control group was BMSCs treated in adipogenic inducer. (D) Oil red O staining was used to measure the formation of lipid droplets in BMSCs after treated by PBS (control group) or M2D-Exos for 14 days. Scale bar = 50 µm. (E) The statistical data of Oil red O staining. *p < 0.05 compared to the control group. Control group was BMSCs treated in adipogenic inducer.
