Characteristics of CXCR4+BMCs(β-gal+) cocultured with myofibers in hanging drops and analyzed after 5 days of culture. a Myofibers cocultured with CXCR4+BMCs(β-gal+) in control and Sdf-1-supplemented medium. b Proportion of CXCR4+BMCs(β-gal+) attached to myofibers, cultured in control and Sdf-1-supplemented medium (n = 30). c Percentage of CXCR4+BMCs(β-gal+) expressing M-cadherin, syndecan-4, and integrin-α7 attached to myofibers, cultured in the medium supplemented with Sdf-1 (n = 30). d Localization of M-cadherin, syndecan-4 (Syn-4), and integrin-α7 (itg-α7) in CXCR4+BMCs(β-gal+) cocultured with myofibers in medium supplemented with Sdf-1. e Localization of M-cadherin, syndecan-4 and integrin-α7 in freshly isolated CXCR4+BMCs(β-gal+). f Localization of M-cadherin, syndecan-4, and integrin-α7 in CXCR4+BMCs(β-gal+) cultured in monolayer on Matrigel and analyzed after 24 h of culture. ***p < 0.001. β-gal β-galactosidase
