The schematic diagram of OFM. A Scheme of hUC MSCs transplantation via OFM route. OFM probe was implanted into the liver. One end of the probe was plugged with an empty syringe, another end of the probe was connected to a push pump and hUC-MSCs suspension was delivered at constant flow rate. B Scheme of OFM sampling of liver interstitial fluid in vivo and in situ. One end of the OFM probe after implantation into the liver was connected to a push pump and another end of the OFM probe was connected to a pull pump. The perfusion fluid was normal saline. The flow rate of the push pump and the pull pump was equal. C Microscope image of OFM probe. D Photograph of OFM probe inserted in liver of anesthetized mice
