Bone Marrow-Derived Conventional, But Not Cloned, Mesenchymal Stem Cells Suppress Lymphocyte Proliferation and Prevent Graft-Versus-Host Disease in Rats
Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) could exert a potent immunosuppressive effect, and therefore may have a therapeutic potential in T-cell-dependent pathologies. In the present study, we aimed to determine whether MSCs could be used to control graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), a major...
