Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Educated Macrophages Ameliorate LPS-Induced Systemic Response

Figure 2

Infusion of educated macrophages (EM) reduces weight loss and pulmonary edema in mice treated with LPS. Animals were sacrificed before and at 6, 24, and 48 h after LPS or PBS treatment. (a) Percentage of weight loss was determined by the lost weight divided by the weight before LPS treatment. (b) Pulmonary edema was measured as the wet-dry ratio. M = macrophages. All data are expressed as mean ± SEM; per group. .
