What Makes Umbilical Cord Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Superior Immunomodulators When Compared to Bone Marrow Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells?
Figure 5
Comparison of UCX (black bars) and BM-MSCs (grey bars) transcriptome of immunomodulatory genes. (a) Relative gene expression of known MSC and immune response related genes in UCX (derived from 3 different umbilical cords) and BM-MSCs (2 different donors) are represented as mean s.e.m. Unbroken line was positioned on the average negative known markers of MSCs. Genes with relative expression values above this line were considered substantially expressed. (b) Genes where there was a relative expression significantly increased or decreased 20% or more.
