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

Figure 14

Expression of Gal-1 mRNA in DCs of each experimental group was determined via real-time PCR. The expression of Gal-1 mRNA was enhanced when MSCs or Gal-1 was cocultured with DCs but inhibited by TDG (, versus DC only group, versus MSC + DC + TDG group).
