Differentiation capacity of hMSCs. The hMSCs were cultivated for 21 days in differentiation media to show multi-potentiality. (A) Adipogenic differentiation resulted in the formation of lipid vacuoles which were stained with Oil Red O; (B) Thin sections of chondrogenic differentiated hMSC-derived cell pellets were stained with Toluidine Blue, demonstrating a highly enriched extracellular matrix; (C) Alician Red staining of hMSCs induced to osteocytes revealed an immense mineral deposition.
