Figure 1From: Culture conditions for equine bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and expression of key transcription factors during their differentiation into osteoblastsProliferation is similar between early and late adherence equine bone marrow stromal cells. Cells were cultured in the absence [bovine serum albumin (BSA)] or presence (BSA + fetal bovine serum) of serum and proliferation was determined by alamarBlue and 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) assays. Data presented are from the BrdU assay and similar findings were observed with alamarBlue assay. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. Bars with different letters are significantly different (P < 0.05). rfu/s = relative fluorescence units/s.Back to article page
