Comparison of Osteogenic Differentiation Potential of Human Dental-Derived Stem Cells Isolated from Dental Pulp, Periodontal Ligament, Dental Follicle, and Alveolar Bone

Figure 6

Adipogenic differentiation capacity of DPSCs, PDLSCs, DFPCs, and ABMMSCs. (a) Oil red O staining of DPSCs, PDLSCs, DFPCs, and ABMMSCs after 21 days of adipogenic differentiation ( μm). (b) qRT-PCR was performed to analyze the potency of adipogenic differentiation in DPSCs, PDLSCs, DFPCs, and ABMMSCs at days 0 and 21. The -axis represents the relative mRNA fold change, which was calculated using the 2^−ΔΔCt formula with β-actin as the internal control. Error bars represent the SD () (, , and vs. DPSCs; ^#, ^##, and ^### vs. PDLSCs; ^&; ^&&, and ^&&& vs. DFPCs; ^†, ^††, and ^††† vs. ABMMSCs).
