Figure 8

Concentration of cytokines released by htMSCs before (control) and after coculture with murine 4T1 tumor cells (with no direct contact). A small increase (about 9%) of IL6, an important increase of IL-8 and MCP1 (about 45% and 37%, resp.), and a decrease of VEGF expression (about 36%) were observed (). All samples were analyzed in triplicate. The results represent the mean and standard deviation of each triplicate.
