Aquaporin expressions during chondrogenic differentiation of C3H10T1/2 mesenchymal stem cell. (a) Expression of AQP1, -3 and -4 mRNA as well as chondrogenic marker genes in C3H10T1/2 mesenchymal stem cell treated with 100 ng of BMP2 for the indicated time periods (n = 4 per each designated time). (b) Agarose gel electrophoresis pictures of the PCR products from the transcript analyses of each RT-qPCR result in panel ‘(a)’. (c) Western blot analyses for AQP1, -3 and -4 protein expression during chondrogenic differentiation of C3H10T1/2 cells. Densitometric analyses of the western blots are shown on the right.
