Dexamethasone, ascorbic acid, beta-glycerophosphate420, 5403Increased the concentration of intracellular calcium thus increased osteogenic relative gene expression.[125]
Dexamethasone, ascorbic acid, beta-glycerophosphate, L-glutamine635, 8080.4Increased the focal adhesion-localized vinculin which promotes osteogenic differentiation.
Osteogenic differentiation was encouraged.

Dexamethasone, beta-glycerol phosphate, ascorbate-2-phosphate8090.5, 1, 2Mineralization occurred which indicated cell differentiation.[142]
Dexamethasone, ascorbic acid, beta-glycerophosphate810, 9803, 0.3Osteogenic-related gene expression was upregulated.[143]
