Effect of different concentrations of Ang II on migration of human bone marrow MSCs. a Nondirectional migration ability of human bone marrow MSCs after stimulations with different concentrations of Ang II (10–8, 10–7, 10–6, 10–5, and 3 × 10–5 M) examined using the scratch assay. Wound sites (areas cleared of cells in the center of the scratched area) were observed and photographed at 0 and 24 h (200×). b Quantitative results of wound healing. c Directional migration ability of human bone marrow MSCs after stimulations with the different concentrations of Ang II indicated examined using the Transwell migration assay. Migrated cells on the bottom surfaces of the Transwell inserts were stained with crystal violet and observed under a microscope (200×). d Quantitative results of cell migration. n = 3; *p < 0.05 vs normal.
