Intraperitoneal Infusion of Mesenchymal Stem/Stromal Cells Prevents Experimental Autoimmune Uveitis in Mice by Joo Youn Oh, Tae Wan Kim, Hyun Jeong Jeong, Hyun Ju Lee, Jin Suk Ryu, Won Ryang Wee, Jang Won Heo, Mee Kum Kim

“…Time course study showed that the number of IFN-γ- or IL-17-expressing CD4+ T cells was increased in draining lymph nodes (DLNs) on the postimmunization day 7 and decreased thereafter. The retinal structure was severely disrupted on day 21. An intraperitoneal injection of hMSCs at the time of immunization protected the retina from damage and suppressed the levels of proinflammatory cytokines in the eye. …”
