[Retracted] Leukemia Inhibitory Factor Facilitates Self-Renewal and Differentiation and Attenuates Oxidative Stress of BMSCs by Activating PI3K/AKT Signaling

Figure 4

Upregulated LIF promotes self-renewal and differentiation of hypoxic BMSCs. (a, b) Colony formation and (c, d) EdU staining for examining BMSC proliferation with exogenous interference or overexpression of LIF under hypoxic condition. Bar, 20 μm. (e–j) Flow sorting for detecting cell surface antigens (CD105, CD90, and CD29) in hypoxic BMSCs with LIF loss or overexpression.
