Role of Bone Marrow-Derived Monocytes/Macrophages in the Repair of Mucosal Damage Caused by Irradiation and/or Anticancer Drugs in Colitis Model
Figure 6
Transplanted BMC migrated into mucosal damaged area. BMC were labeled using Vivotag750. These cells were transplanted into AA + 5-FU model via tail vein. After 24 hours, mice were sacrificed, and the colon was observed. The labeled cells could be detected in mucosal damaged area by fluorescence microscope. Transplanted BMC accumulated significantly in mucosal damaged area (b), but not in normal area (a). Three pictures were -axis high, middle, and low in one of the particular area.
