Figure 1

Cellular morphology of hMSC-TERT after GO treatment. The upper panel shows cell enlargement, vacuolation and an increased heterogeneity after 3 days of treatment with 0.75 mM and 1 mM GO. The lower panel shows that after 3 days of GO treatment, followed by 3 days in normal medium without GO, the treated cells did not revert back to the normal morphology and maintained a senescent appearance. Pictures were taken using a 10× objective lens on a phase-contrast microscope.
