Morphology and characterization of BM-MSCs.

<p>(A, B): The morphology of BM-MSCs of passage 5 (×100 magnification [A] and ×200 magnification [B]). The BM-MSCs have a fibroblast-like, spindle-shaped morphology. (C–F): Immunophenotype of BM-MSCs. BM-MSCs of passage 5 were marked with antibodies specific for positive antigen (CD 90 [C] and CD 29 [F]) or negative controls (CD45 [D] and CD11b/c [E]), and analyzed by flow cytometry.
