Differential potential and proliferative capacity of freshly isolated dental pulp stem cells (fresh-DPSCs) and cryopreserved dental pulp stem cells (cryo-DPSCs). a Adipogenic differentiation was observed by oil red O staining. Osteogenic differentiation was observed by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity. Bar = 250 μm. b The growth of fresh-DPSCs and cryo-DPSCs was measured as the cell number counted with a hemocytometer on day 3 and day 5 after seeding. c The proliferative activity of fresh-DPSCs and cryo-DPSCs was determined by the MTT assay on day 3 and day 5. Results are expressed as means ± SEM (n = 9)
