Mesenchymal stem cells effect on rat islet viability and insulin secretion after exposure to cytokines. a Islet viability was assessed by flow cytometry after PKH67/Propidium iodide double staining. Data are representative of six independent experiments and are represented as median ± interquartile (ANOVA; *p < 0.05 vs. respective controls and #p < 0.05 vs. cytokine-exposed islets alone). b Stimulation index was determined based on the insulin secretion response to glucose stimulation. Data are representative of 10 independent experiments and are represented as median ± interquartile
