Injection feasibility and cell location. Cells were injected into the submucosa using a 23G endoscopic needle. a, b and c injection procedure, bleb formation and endoscopic appearance after injection. Cells are injected into the submucosa, this is demonstrated by presence of hASC staining (brown) using anti-human mitochondria antibodies in colon submucosa 24 h after injection in a healthy animal (d) or in a colitic animal (e). Eleven days after injection in a colitic animal that recovered weight cells no staining was seen (f)
