Molecular Mechanisms of Immunomodulation Properties of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells: A New Insight into the Role of ICAM-1

Figure 6

Supernatants from mixed cultures of hASC and activated PBMC stimulate ICAM-1 transcription in hASC and PBMC. PBMCs were activated with anti-CD3 and СD28 and cultured alone or with hASC in contact and contactless conditions (48 h). Supernatants were added to activated PBMC and hASC cultured alone. PBMC (a) and hASC (b) were analyzed for ICAM-1 mRNA level 48 hours later (mean + SEM, , ).
