Immunoregulatory Effects of Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells in the Nasal Polyp Microenvironment

Figure 5

In vitro cytokine profile of polyp-derived cells cultured in the presence or absence of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells. A decrease in inflammatory cytokines (IL-2, TNF-α, and IFN-γ) and enhancement of anti-inflammatory cytokine (IL-10 and IL-6) levels was observed when MSCs were cocultured with polyp-derived cells.
