Figure Lengend Snippet: BM-MSCs characterization. (A) BM-MSCs were adherent to the culture flask and presented elongated morphology (scale bar, 100 µm). They also expressed high mesenchymal markers, such as (B) CD90 and (C) CD105 (scale bar, 100 µm). In addition, they could differentiate to chondrogenic by (D) Alcian blue staining and calcified areas generated by osteogenic cells with (E) Von Kossa stain. BM-MSCs, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.

Article Snippet: MSC multipotency was examined by inducing the cells to differentiate to osteoblasts or chondroblasts, using the appropriate reagents in the Mouse Mesenchymal Stem Cell Functional Identification kit (cat. no. SC010; R&D Systems, Inc.) and following the manufacturer's instructions.

Techniques: Staining, Generated

Figure Lengend Snippet: Lentiviral transduction of BM-MSC. (A-C) Lentiviral vectors were designed to contain (A) sTRAIL, (B) flTRAIL and (C) IFNβ. (D) Representative fluorescent images of BM-MSCs transduced with lentiviral vectors; nucleus stained with DAPI (blue) and transduced BM-MSCs expressing GFP protein (green signal). (E and F) Western blot analysis confirming protein expression of (E) flTRAIL and sTRAIL (F) and IFNβ in untransfected MSCs and MSCs transduced with a lentivirus that does not contain any of the genes of interest (empty lentiviral vector pLV[Exp]-EGFP:T2A:Puro-EF1A> mCherry, Vector Builder). MSCs express each of the genes flTRAIL, sTRAIL and IFN and as positive control the recombinant protein. Actin was used as a loading control. BM-MSCs, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells; sTRAIL, TRAIL soluble; flTRAIL, TRAIL full length; IFNβ, interferon β.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Kaplan-Meier curves. (A) First model with all treatments. (B) Second model with sTRAIL and IFNβ treatment and MSC naïve. *P<0.05 and **P<0.001 compared with the untreated group. sTRAIL, TRAIL soluble; IFNβ, interferon β; MSC, mesenchymal stem cell.
