Hierarchical clustering of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) immunophenotypes separates fetal and adult harvest. (a) Dendrogram generated by single linkage clustering. Height represents relative distance between clusters. (b) Principal component (PC) analysis showing grouping of MSC by source, centered on human skin fibroblasts (HSF) as controls, relative to PC1 and PC2 variables. ADMSC, adipose tissue MSC; BMMSC, bone marrow MSC; CBMSC, cord blood MSC; WJMSC, Wharton’s jelly MSC; PVC, perivascular cell; AFC, amniotic fluid cell.
