CD73 is commonly available for the prospective isolation of MSCs. (a) Representative results of flow cytometric analysis for cell surface markers using freshly isolated BMMNCs from rats. The CD73+ population is positive for previously described MSC markers (CD29, CD44, CD54, and CD90). (b) Flow cytometric analysis in the CD73+ population for cell surface markers from human and mouse BM (CD29, CD44, CD90, CD140a, CD271, and leptin receptor).
