Abstract excerpt
Human mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) heterogeneity and problems associated with the ex vivo expansion of MSC are linked with the failure of MSC clinical trials. In this study, we compared the effect of MSCs cultured in different oxygen concentrations on GVHD in mice to elucidate whether hypoxia improves the immunosuppressive capacity of MSCs. Hypoxia increased the proliferative activity and the expression of several...
