Proliferation and apoptosis of primary and MoM fibroblast. a Proliferation of primary and MoM fibroblasts over 72 h measured by MTS assay. Apoptosis of primary and MoM fibroblast induced by serum withdrawal. b Quantification of apoptotic cells of primary and MoM fibroblasts. Data was from 3 independent experiments using fibroblasts from each primary and MOM patient; unpaired Student’s t-test; *p < 0.05. Representative cell apoptosis results of primary (c) and MoM (d) fibroblasts from each patient assessed by Annexin V-FITC/PI assay via FACS
