Immortalized mesenchymal stem cells have greater proliferative capacity. (a) and (b) Cell growth curve of hADSC, hUCMSC, and MSCs after transfected by LV-TERT and LV-BMI1, detected by the CCK-8 assay. (c) and (d) By adding EdU reagent, the EdU-positive cells of hADSC, hUCMSC im-hUCMSC, and im-hADSC were detected at two hours later. The rate of EdU-positive cells in hADSC, hUCMSC, im-hUCMSC, and im-hADSC. The results are presented as the mean ± SD of biological triplicate assays. Magnification, ×100. Scale bar, 500 μm. , . im-hUCMSC: immortalized human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells; im-hADSC: immortalized human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells.
