Protein and mRNA expression of BMI1 and TERT genes in immortalized MSCs. (a) RT-PCR analysis of BMI1 and TERT mRNA expression in hADSC and hUCMSC infected with LV-TERT, LV-BMI1, and control lentivirus (mean ± SD, = 3). (b) Western blot detection of TERT and BMI1 protein expression in hADSC and hUCMSC after overexpressing TERT or BMI1. (c) Microscopic view of immortalized hADSC and hUCMSC, respectively, magnification, ×100, scale bar, 100 μm. The results are presented as the mean ± SD of biological triplicate assays. . LV: lentivirus.
