Age-related decrease in BMSC number in bone marrow microenvironment. Bone marrow stromal cell (BMSC), hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) and myeloid progenitor (MP) were harvested from femur bone marrow of 6-month-old mice and cultured in vitro. ELISA was performed to measure Gal-1 secretion in these supernatants (a). Flow cytometry was employed to measure the percentage of CD73 and Sca1 positive cells in femur bone marrow of 6- and 18-month-old mice (b). Data were shown as the means ± SD. **: p < 0.01, ***: p < 0.001
