Fig. 10From: Heme oxygenase-1-transduced bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in reducing acute rejection and improving small bowel transplantation outcomes in ratsExpression of Treg cells in recipient spleen. a Scatter plot of Treg cells by flow cytometry. b Histogram showing the percentages of Treg cells on days 1, 5, 7, and 10 (n = 5 in each group). Levels of Treg cells increased steadily in the Ad/HO-1/BMMSC treatment group compared with the three control groups. Data expressed as mean ± SD (*P < 0.05 compared with allogeneic controls; # P < 0.05 compared with BMMSC controls; $ P < 0.05 compared with Ad/BMMSC controls).
