From: Caveolin-1 mediates soft scaffold-enhanced adipogenesis of human mesenchymal stem cells
Influence of CAV1 gene expression knockdown on adipogenesis in monolayer culture maintained in adipogenic medium. Control siRNA (si-CTRL) and CAV1 siRNA (si-CAV1) were used. a Relative expression levels of CAV1 and adipogenic marker genes. Data are normalized to that in the CTRL group, which was not treated with siRNA or transfection agents. N = 4. b Oil Red O staining. Bar = 100 μm. c Lipid staining was extracted and quantified spectrophotometrically. *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001, ****p<0.0001. N = 6
