The cargo of hUCB-MSC-derived EVs from each condition. (a) The levels of miR-127-3p, miR-155-5p, miR-34a-5p, and miR-146a-5p were measured by qRT-PCR in EVs derived from unstimulated 2D, cytokine (IFN-γ and TNF-α, each 40 ng/mL)-stimulated 2D, and 3D hUCB-MSCs. The error bars represent the standard deviation of measurements in three separate sample runs (). Significance of difference was determined using one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s posttest. (b) Proteomic analysis of selected human cytokines from 2D and 3D hUCB-MSC-derived EVs. The error bars represent the standard deviation of measurements in two separate sample runs (). Significance of difference was determined using two-way ANOVA with Tukey’s posttest. Columns, mean; bars, SD. , , , and .
