Systemic immunomodulatory effects of iv-administered HucMSC at 7-day post-MI. (a) Gating strategy and representative images of flow cytometry in the peripheral blood at 7-day post-MI. (b) The ratio of immune cells (CD45+%), B cells (CD19+% of CD45+), and T cells (CD3+% of CD45+) in the peripheral blood was analyzed by flow cytometry at 7-day post-MI. c) The ratio of immune cells (CD45+%), B cells (CD19+% of CD45+), and T cells (CD3+% of CD45+) in spleen was analyzed by flow cytometry at 7-day post-MI. (d) The ratio of immune cells (CD45+%), B cells (CD19+% of CD45+), and T cells (CD3+% of CD45+) in med-LNs was analyzed by flow cytometry at 7-day post-MI. ā€‰~ā€‰4 mice for each group. ns, non-significant vs. MI group; vs. MI group; vs. MI group.
