Fig. 3From: Three-dimensional cultured mesenchymal stem cells enhance repair of ischemic stroke through inhibition of microglia3D MSCs exhibited enhanced homing ability to ischemic brain tissues. a, b Immunofluorescence imaging of GFP-labeled MSCs in the ischemic brain at 2 days after IV injection. The quantitative graph showed that significantly more 3D MSCs were found in the ischemic core than 2D MSCs. Data are shown as mean ± SEM; n = 3 for each group. *p < 0.05. c Immunofluorescence imaging of GFP-labeled 3D MSCs in the diseased and the contralateral hemisphere. MSCs preferentially migrated to the ischemic hemisphereBack to article page
