Measurements of HGF expression in MSC and MSC-MVs after HGF gene knockdown. The results showed that HGF expression in MSCs was decreased in the siHGF-MSC group compared to the MSC group (a and c, p < 0.05). Similarly, HGF protein expression in the MSC-MVs was decreased in the siHGF-MSC-MVs group compared to the MSC-MVs group (b and d, p < 0.05). (n = 3, *p < 0.05 vs. MSC or MSC-MVs group).
