Flow cytometric analysis of CECs. CECs of all groups were examined for the expression of CD29, CD73, CD340, and CD44. Initially, to determine the cellularity and granulation, CECs were evaluated for the parameters of front scatter (FSC) and side scatter (SSC). Then, the CECs were analyzed further for the expression of CD29, CD73, CD340, and CD44. Group A: CECs cultured with α-ΜΕΜ supplemented with 20% v/v CB-PL), Group B: CECs cultured with α-ΜΕΜ supplemented with 20% v/v CB-PPP, control group (+): positive control group, CECs cultured with complete culture medium, control group (−), negative control group: CECs cultured only with α-MEM.
