Proliferation and differentiation of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) into osteoblastic lineage are passage dependent by Faour, Wissam

“…Increased passage number impaired cell growth; P2 cultures exhibited exponential growth, while cells at P4 and P6 showed near linear growth with cell population doubling times increased from 3.2 at P2 to 4.8 d at P6. Morphologically, cells in various subcultivation stages showed flattened shape at low density but spindle-like structures at confluency as judged by phalloidin staining. …”
