Aside from Morphology and Microscopy how are the MLPC clonal cell lines characterized?
To date, we have characterized the MLPC clonal cell lines by following morphology throughout culturing, through CD surface marker staining throughout culturing, and through gene microarray analyses. Once MLPCs have been differentiated into a specific cell lineage, we perform microscopy to stain either for surface markers (where applicable) or intracellularly (where applicable). We have not performed any gene microarray analyses on the differentiated cells.
