Tissue Inhibitor of Matrix Metalloproteinases-1 Knockdown Suppresses the Proliferation of Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cells

Figure 1

Western blot analysis for TIMP-1 protein expression. The expression levels of TIMP-1 protein in adipose tissue, fibroblasts, and ADSCs were determined by western blotting analysis. (a) The representative western blot images for the bands of TIMP-1. (b) Relative expression levels of TIMP-1 protein were quantified by the densitometry of each band normalized to β-actin signal. The data represent the mean ± SD (). versus the AT group. AT: adipose tissue; FB: fibroblasts.
