Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Have a Heterogenic Cytokine Secretion Profile

Figure 2

Secretion of IL-6 and IFN-γ by ASC. ASC () (50 ASC for IL-6, 4000 ASC for IFN-γ) were cultured without or in the presence of IFN-γ or TGF-β for 72 h and washed and reseeded. IL-6 and IFN-γ ELISA were performed in 20 h conditioned medium. Data is presented as box and whisker plot (median and range). More IFN-γ was produced after pretreatment with TGF-β (, two-tailed paired t-test).
