Cardiogel: A Nano-Matrix Scaffold with Potential Application in Cardiac Regeneration Using Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Figure 2
Preliminary characterization of cardiogel and mesogel.
(A) Immunocytochemistry (ICC) of cardiogel for a panel of ECM structural proteins before and after decellularization on gelatin coated and non-coated plates, counter-stained with Hoechst staining for nucleus (B) Western Blotting of cardiogel and mesogel for a panel of ECM structural proteins before and after decellularization with ACTB as internal control. Scale bar = 100 µm; Abbreviations: COLI, Collagen Type I; COLIII, Collagen Type III; LAM, Laminin; FIB, Fibronectin; ACTB, Beta Actin.
