Microcarriers support ADSC growth. Morphology of microcarriers cytodex 1 (a), cytodex 3 (b), and cytopore 1 (c). Pictures were taken under bright field. ADSC-EGFP cells grown on cytodex 1 (e), cytodex 3 (f), and cytopore 1 (g). Pictures were taken under a fluorescent microscope. Scale bar, 50 μm. g The growth curve of ADSC-EGFP cells grown on microcarriers as indicated. The cell proliferation was monitored by the fluorescent signals. Data derived from three independent experiments were presented as mean ± SD. **p < 0.01, cytodex 1 vs cytodex 3, was considered significant
