hESC-MSC derivation and phenotype.
(A) Schematic outline of the process of differentiation from hESCs to hESC-MSCs. (B) hESC-MSC morphology under bright field imaging (Scale bar 100 μm). (C–H) Flow cytometry analysis of markers positive (C–E) and negative (F–H) for hESC-MSCs. Red histogram represents unstained populations. Average of two independent experiments. (I,J) Isotype control (I) and HLA-G (J) staining of hESC-MSCs (red). Cells were counterstained for DAPI (blue) (Scale bar 50 μm). Staining was performed twice, producing comparable results.
