From: Dermal fibroblasts display similar phenotypic and differentiation capacity to fat-derived mesenchymal stem cells, but differ in anti-inflammatory and angiogenic potential

Figure 2

AD-MSCs, but not HNDFs, produce high levels of angiogenic factors. ELISA-tests were performed to detect VEGFa, TGF-β1, HGF, PDGF, Ang-1 and Ang-2 angiogenic factors released by AD-MSCs and HNDFs in the CM. Note that AD-MSCs, compared to HNDFs, release very high quantities of VEGFa, HGF and Ang-1. Data are the absolute values expressed as mean ± SD of the secreted factor per 106 cells after 72 hrs of incubation. The background values of angiogenic factors contained in EGM control medium (supplemented with 10% FCS and 50 ng/ml bFGF) were subtracted. Tests were run in triplicate and repeated twice. ** p < 0.01 versus HNDFs release
