Gene expression of rat-collagen I, rat-collagen III, rat-elastin, TIMP-2, and MMP-2 (a) and protein expression of rat-collagen III and rat-elastin in conditioned medium treated rat vaginas (b). Data shown represent the mean ± SD. Pure control = rats without surgery and no treatment; Sham SMGS = SUI rats treated with concentrated SMGS; H9 CM = SUI rats treated with conditioned medium from H9 ESC-derived pSMC; Huf5 CM = SUI rats treated with conditioned medium from Huf5 iPSC-derived pSMCs; BIR CM = SUI rats treated with conditioned medium from Huf5 iPSC-derived pSMCs. *Significant difference between groups (p < 0.05)
