Effects of uninduced MSCs and induced MSCs on neovascularization at ischemic sites. On day 28 post-surgery, ischemia samples were analyzed to determine endothelial differentiation and neovascularization of transplanted MSCs at the injured sites. Vessel formation was confirmed by immunofluorescence staining for α-SMA (red) (a) and CD31(b). Scale bar = 75um. c In induced MSCs, GFP+ cells co-localized with α-SMA, indicating vasculature formation from transplanted cells. Scale bar = 50um
