Figure Lengend Snippet: Gene expression analysis of GATA binding protein 4 and myocyte enhancer factor 2C transfected human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells. Semiquantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis was performed to show the gene expression levels of GATA binding protein 4 and myocyte enhancer factor 2C transfected mesenchymal stem cells, separately and in combination, in comparison to the control. Results are expressed as the mean ± SE ( n = 3). Differences between groups are considered statistically significant where b P < 0.01 and c P < 0.001. GATA-4: GATA binding protein 4; MEF2C: Myocyte enhancer factor 2C.

Article Snippet: GATA-4 and MEF2C plasmids were purchased from Addgene (plasmid No. 46030 and No. 46031, respectively).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Morphological changes and cardiac-specific gene expression in transfected human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells. A: Images showing human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells trasnfected with (b) GATA binding protein 4 (GATA-4), (c) myocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C), and (d) GATA-4 + MEF2C, and (a) the corresponding untreated control. All images were captured at day 14 under a phase contrast microscope (scale bar: 100 μm); B: Bar diagrams showing fold change analysis of cardiac gene expression by semiquantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in the transfected cells in comparison to the control cells after 14 d of culture. Results are expressed as the mean ± SE ( n = 3). Differences between groups are considered statistically significant where a P < 0.05, b P < 0.01, and c P < 0.001. GATA-4: GATA binding protein 4; MEF2C: Myocyte enhancer factor 2C; MHC: Myosin heavy chain; NKX2.5: NK2 homeobox 5.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Cardiac-specific protein expression in transfected human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells. A: Fluorescence images showing human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) transfected with GATA binding protein 4 (GATA-4) and myocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C), separately and in combination, in comparison to the control cells (scale bar: 50 μm); B: Bar diagrams showing quantification of positive cells using ImageJ software. Also shown is the comparison between the individual and combination groups. Results are expressed as the mean ± SE ( n = 5). Differences between groups are considered statistically significant where a P < 0.05 and c P < 0.001. GATA-4: GATA binding protein 4; MEF2C: Myocyte enhancer factor 2C; CTnT: Cardiac troponin T; NKX2.5: NK2 homeobox 5; NS: Not significant.
