Chondrogenesis of AM-MSCs, UC-MSCs, and CP-MSCs. a–c Representative pictures of three MSCs before and after the chondrogenic differentiation were shown. The differentiation results of AM-MSCs (a), UC-MSCs (b), and CP-MSCs (c) were confirmed by Alcian Blue staining. Scale bar = 200 μm. d–f Real-time PCR was performed to measure the relative expression levels of chondrogenic differentiation related genes: DCN (d), COMP (e), and COL2A1 (f). All data were presented as the mean ± SEM (n = 3). Each sample was replicated in triplicates
