Flow cytometric analysis of DBMSC expression of immune markers. After 24 h of culture with 100 μM H2O2 and as compared with untreated control DBMSC, DBMSC expression of IL-1β was significantly reduced () while the expression of IL-12, TNF-α, ICAM-1, CXCR4, and CXCL4 by DBMSCs (b–e, resp.) was not significantly changed (). The levels of the expression of immune markers in DBMSCs were recorded as median fluorescence intensity. Experiments were conducted in triplicate using DBMSCs (passage 3) prepared from five placentae. Bars represent standard errors.
