Fig. 3From: Co-culture of the bone and bone marrow: a novel way to obtain mesenchymal stem cells with enhanced osteogenic ability for fracture healing in SD ratsImmunophenotyping of MSCs from different sources by flow cytometry assays. Two types of P3 MSCs were chosen for immunophenotyping. According to the flow cytometry results, CD90 (99.18% ± 0.15%), CD44 (98.47% ± 0.89%), and CD29 (99.39% ± 0.36%) were prominently expressed (> 97%), whereas CD106 (0.11% ± 0.03%), CD45 (1.58% ± 0.31%), and CD31 (0.23% ± 0.02%) were barely expressed (< 2%) in B-BM-MSCs, which was consistent with the results of BM-MSCs. Stained cells are represented in green, whereas unstained cells are in red. n = 12.Back to article page
