Figure 1From: Adipogenesis of adipose-derived stem cells may be regulated via the cytoskeleton at physiological oxygen levels in vitroCytoskeletal morphology as a function of inhibitor treatment. Alexa Fluor 488 conjugated phalloidin (green) staining showed the actin microfilament structure of non-inhibited adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) (A), and the disrupted cytoskeleton of ASCs cultured with 2 μM cytochalasin D (B) and 50 μM blebbistatin (C). ASC nuclei were counterstained with Hoechst (blue). Cytochalasin D inhibited actin polymerization and blebbistatin inhibited non-muscle myosin type II activity, altering cell morphology. Scale bar = 30 μm.Back to article page
