Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 3. Characteristics of Lepr+ PDLSCs in vivo and in vitro. A) Endomucin staining was performed on Lepr-CreER;tdTomato mice which induced 2 days from P21. P.I., post-induction. Arrows indicate the Tomato+ cells located in the peri-vascular niche. Scale bar: 50 μm. B,C) Representative images and percentage of Tomato+EdU+/Tomato+ cells from adult Lepr-CreER;tdTomato mice with PDL injury and control group (n = 6). Scale bar: 50 μm. D–G) Osterix D,E) and Periostin F,G) staining and statistical analysis of Lepr-CreER;tdTomato mice which induced 2 days from P21 (n = 6). P.I., post- induction. Scale bar: 50 μm. H) Colony formation from single Tomato+ cell. I) Osterix, Aggrecan, and Perilipin staining indicated the osteogenesis(left), chondrogenesis(middle), and adipogenesis(right) potential of Lepr+ cells. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation. ***P<0.001 as determined by two-tailed Student t-tests.
