Figure 1: Establishment and characterization of BMMSC in culture A: Adherence and proliferation of BMMSC. B: Morphological changes during BMMSC osteocytic differentiation at day 10 following treatment with dexamethasone or Colloss E on Hematoxyllin and Eosin stained cover slips. C: ALP protein expression in treated versus untreated BMMSCs at day 8 post treatment. GAPDH was used to ensure equal loading of cell lysates. D: Expression of alkaline phosphatase activity in U/ml/hour/μg of protein. The peak was detected at day 10 post-treatment with Dexamethasone and Colloss E. A statistically significant increase in ALP activity * was detected in treated versus non treated cells. |
