Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in a Diabetic Monkey Model and Therapeutic Testing of Human Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Figure 1

The survival rate and changes in renal function markers. DM monkeys that experienced renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) were subsequently injected with MSC (DM + MSC) or not (DM). Non-DM animals were used as the control. The serum levels of creatinine (a) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (b) were measured at designated study points. Data are median with range. in the non-DM, DM, and DM + MSC groups, respectively.
