Cytotoxicity study of myeloperoxidase activity in the colon and catalase activity in serum. Cytotoxicity studies were performed by measuring (A) myeloperoxidase activity in the colon and (B) catalase activity in serum. Mice receiving dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) + umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (UCMSCs) treatment showed a significantly reduced myeloperoxidase activity compared with the DSS + phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) group (**P <0.01). On the other hand, DSS + UCMSCs-treated mice had almost similar catalase levels to the DSS + PBS mice.
