Differentiation of ADSCs and MT-ADSCs into neurons based on β-tubulinIII (TUJ-1) staining. A At the site of injury: the nuclei of ADSCs and MT-ADSCs labeled with DAPI; ADSCs and MT-ADSCs labeled with DiI; Neuron differentiation of ADSCs and MT-ADSCs labeled with β-tubulinIII. B Comparison of the number of β-tubulin III positive cells between Vehicle (SCI + DMEM), SCI + ADSCs, and SCI + MT-ADSCs groups demonstrated that MT-ADSCs differentiated into neurons more than ADSCs at the site of SCI (***P < 0.001); (Magnification: 20×)
