Figure 2

Protein expressions of MMP-9 and ICAM-1 in lung and kidney at 72 hours after the CLP procedure. A and B) The protein expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 in lung (A) and kidney (B). For lung: * versus other groups with different symbols, P <0.001. For kidney: * versus other groups with different symbols, P <0.001. C and D) The protein expressions of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 in lung (C) and kidney (D). For lung: * versus other groups with different symbols, P <0.001. For kidney: * versus other groups with different symbols, P <0.001. Statistical analysis using one-way ANOVA, followed by the Bonferroni multiple comparison post hoc test (n = 8). Symbols (*, †, ‡, §) indicate significant difference (<0.05). SC, sham control; CLP, cecal ligation and puncture; H-ADMSC, healthy adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell; A-ADMSC, apoptotic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell. ANOVA, analysis of variance.
