IL-6 and IL-6R expression in BM-MSCs during osteogenic differentiation. a Expression of IL-6 and IL-6R genes increased during osteogenic differentiation and peaked on day 10 or 14 of induction. b ELISA results showing that IL-6 secretion increases during osteogenic differentiation in BM-MSCs. Western blotting results showing that IL-6R expression in BM-MSCs peaked on day 14 of induction. c Results of flow cytometry showing that mIL-6R expression increases during osteogenic differentiation in BM-MSCs. d IL-6 and IL-6R expression are positively correlated with ARS staining results in BM-MSCs. Data are presented as the means ± SD of 15 samples per group. *Indicates P < 0.05 compared to the day 0 group. IL-6 interleukin 6, IL-6R interleukin 6 receptor
