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

Figure 3

Infusion of educated macrophages (EM) alters the systemic inflammatory response to LPS. In each group, blood and BAL samples were collected at 6, 24, and 48 h after LPS or PBS treatment. Cytokine concentrations were determined in a Luminex system. (a) Cytokine levels in serum (IFN-γ, IL-6, and IL-10). (b) Cytokine levels in BAL (IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, and IL-13). M = macrophages. All data are expressed as mean ± SEM; per group. ; ; and .
