Intrapleural administration of MSCs did not affect the lung MPO activity after endotoxin-induced ALI, which is an index of neutrophil sequestration. No significant difference was detected between MSCs- and PBS- treatment groups at day 1, 3 or 7 after injury (n = 6 per group per time-point). Data are expressed as mean ± SD. ^#P < 0.05 versus normal group. Data were assessed using one-way analysis of variance with SNK-q post hoc tests.
