Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Inhibit Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inflammatory Reactions in Macrophages and Endothelial Cells

Coculture with BMSCs attenuates the activity of LPS to induce release of cytokines in alveolar macrophages (a) and HUVECs (b). Alveolar macrophages and HUVECs with or without coculture with BMSCs were treated with LPS or PBS for 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 hours. The cell culture supernatant was then collected for cytokine analysis by ELISA. Data are expressed as the mean ± SD from three experiments. , .
