Fig. 8From: Effects of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS)-pretreated human amnion-derived mesenchymal stem cell (hAD-MSC) transplantation on primary ovarian insufficiency in ratsTransplantation of hAD-MSCs reduces ovary inflammation induced by chemotherapy. Expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α) and VEGF in the ovaries were detected by ELISA assay. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01; # P < 0.05. hAD-MSCs human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells, IL interleukin, LIPUS low-intensity pulsed ultrasound, POI primary ovarian insufficiency, TNF tumor necrosis factor, VEGF vascular endothelial growth factorBack to article page
