MSCs with high levels of GSH displayed enhanced chondrogenic potential. A Morphology of hES-MSC pellets with different GSH levels. B (left) Weight and (right) size of the pellets after 21 days of chondrogenic differentiation (n = 5 respectively). C Safranin-O staining for proteoglycan and immunohistochemistry staining for collagen type II after chondrogenic differentiation for 21 days using GSH-high and GSH-low hES-MSCs. D mRNA expression of chondrogenic markers in the hES-MSCs measured by real-time PCR (n = 5 per group). ****p < 0.0001
