Additional file 7: of Does osteogenic potential of clonal human bone marrow mesenchymal stem/stromal cells correlate with their vascular supportive ability?

Figure S6. Correlations between adipogenic lineage differentiation potential with osteogenic or vascular tubule supportive capacity. Clonal hBM MSC CFU-F cultures at p1 were assayed quantitatively for their adipogenic, osteogenic or vascular supportive potential after culture in specific differentiation media or assays, relative to the control non CFU-F selected hBM MSC sample (Control), which was set at 100%. Correlations were determined using Pearson’s correlation coefficient (r) for the 3 bone marrow donor aspirates between A) osteogenic and adipogenic lineage differentiation potential and B) adipogenic versus vascular supportive capacity for the 3 donor bone marrows tested. Both show poor correlations between osteogenic vs adipogenic potential and adipogenic vs vascular supportive activity. (TIF 6791 kb
