Abstract
A 2-level full factorial design was firstly employed to explore the responses of murine bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells stimulated by various combinations of EGF, PDGF-BB, and fibronectin. EGF and PDGF-BB individually, rather than fibronectin, had significant effects on cell proliferation. The synergism between PDGF-BB and fibronectin, as well as the antagonism between EGF and PDGF-BB were also detected. Moreover, cells changed from a flattened and spread to a smaller and elongated shape with addition of factors. The factors also moved cells out of G0/G1 phase, increasing the fractions of cells in S and G2/M phases.
