Immunomodulatory functions of ADSCs and VEGF-C + ADSCs on immune cells in the colon and MLNs. a CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells in the colon tissues were observed by IHC. ×200, magnification. b CD11c+ dendritic cells in the colon tissues were observed by IF. ×200, magnification. c Colonic CD4+ T cells. d Colonic CD8+ T cells. e Colonic CD11c+ dendritic cells. All immune cells were counted per field (N = 5) using ImageJ. (N = 3, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01)
