description: Additional file 1: Fig. S1 Characterization of the morphology of hMSC-DP under SF culture conditions. a-b Cell morphology analysis by high-content imaging. The nuclear area (a) and cell area (b) of DPSCs and SHED are shown in SE and SF culture conditions. n = 3 for each group. c Cellular senescence assay. The percentage of SA-β-gal positive cells was calculated and compared between SE and SF culture conditions. n = 3 ~ 5 for each group. SE, serum; SF, serum-free. Data shown as mean ± SEM. ns, not significant. Fig. S2 Proliferation capacity of hMSC-DP under SF culture conditions. a CFU-F assay. The numbers of colonies of hMSC-DP under SE or SF culture conditions were calculated and compared. n = 3 for each group. b Population doubling scores were calculated and compared between SE and SF culture conditions in DPSCs and SHED groups, independently. n = 3 for each group. c EdU assay. The percentage of EdU-positive cells were calculated and compared between SE and SF culture conditions in DPSCs and SHED groups, independently. n = 3 for each group. Scale bar = 200 μm. SE, serum; SF, serum-free. Data shown as mean ± SEM. *p &lt; 0.05. ns, not significant. Fig. S3 Surface phenotypic profiles and in vitro immunoregulation ability of hMSC-DP. a-b Flow cytometry showed the percentage of CD146-positive hMSC-DP under SE or SF culture conditions at P5, P10 and P20 (a). The percentage of CD146-positive cells was compared between SE and SF culture conditions (b). n = 3 for each group. c The percentage of apoptotic T cells was calculated in SE and SF culture conditions. n = 3 for each group. SE, serum; SF, serum-free. Data shown as mean ± SEM. *p &lt; 0.05. ns, not significant. Fig. S4 Multilineage differentiation of hMSC-DP. a Alizarin red staining assay. The osteogenic capacity was compared between SE and SF culture conditions at P5, P10 and P20. n = 3 for each group. b Oil red O staining assay. The adipogenic capacity of hMSC-DP was compared between SE and SF culture conditions at P5, P10 and P20. n = 3 for each group. Scale bar = 50 μm. SE, serum; SF, serum-free. Data shown as mean ± SEM. **p &lt; 0.01. ns, not significant. Fig. S5 Therapeutic effects of hMSC-DP on experimental colitis. a Disease activity index (DAI) of DPSC- and SHED-treated groups was compared between SE and SF culture conditions at P5, P10 and P20. n = 3 for each group. b The colon length after DPSCs and SHED treatment was compared between SE and SF culture conditions at P5, P10 and P20. n = 3 for each group. c Histological structure was examined by H&amp;E staining. The histological score of each group was compared between SE and SF culture conditions. n = 3 for each group. Scale bar = 100 μm. SE, serum; SF, serum-free. Data shown as mean ± SEM. ns, not significant. Fig. S6 The expression level of CD146 is associated with hMSC-DP properties. a The correlation of CD146 with experimental parameters. b Linear regression plots showed the correlation between CD146 expression and experimental parameters including CFU-F clones, percentage of EdU positive cells, percentage of Alizarin red positive area, percentage of SA-β-gal positive cells, DAI scores, HAI scores and colon length.
