Figure 6From: Mesenchymal precursor cells in the blood of normal individualsBMPC-rich elutriation fraction cultured in DMEM-20% FCS supplemented with dexamethasone, ascorbic acid, and β-glycerophosphate (as described in Fig. 1) and examined daily thereafter. (a) By day 7 there are many large, multinucleated cells (phase-contrast microscopy). (b) These cells stain with an anti-vitronectin receptor antibody (×250).Back to article page
