Characterization of hUC-MSCs. A-C. Representative photomicrographs of hUC-MSC differentiation assays for (A) Chrondrogenesis (Alcian blue staining). (B) Osteogenesis (Alizarin red staining). (C) Adipogenesis (Oil red O staining). Scale bar = 50 μm. Magnification, ×200. (D) Representative flow cytometry analysis showing hUC-MSCs forward and side scatter characteristics (dot plot) and relative fluorescence intensities following surface staining with monoclonal antibodies against CD290, CD44, CD105, CD73, CD45, CD29 and HLA-DR. All assays were repeated three times with consistent results
