The effects of ASC and ASC-CM transplantation on the expression levels of DNMT1 (A), DNMT3A (B) and DNMT3B (C) four weeks after treatments. The mRNA level of each sample was normalized against β-actin. Values represent the means ± SEM from each group. Data were analyzed by Kruskal–Wallis test and one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test. *shows significant differences vs the Sham (*P ≤ 0.05). ^#shows significant differences vs the CTRL group (^#P ≤ 0.05, and ^##P ≤ 0.01). ^Φ shows significant differences vs ASC group (^Φ P ≤ 0.05). Abbreviations: CTRL, Control group; ASC, Adipose stem cell group; ASC-CM, Adipose stem cell-conditioned media group
