Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Inhibit the Function of Dendritic Cells by Secreting Galectin-1

Mixed lymphocyte reaction assay was used to examine the DC-stimulated T cell proliferation response. MSC + DC 5 d, MSC + DC 3 d, and MSC + DC 1 d refer to MSCs and DCs coculture for 5 days, 3 days, and 1 day, respectively. As the MSC and DC coculture time increased, the proliferative effect of DCs on T cells was significantly reduced (, versus DC only group, versus DC only group).
