In-vitro anti-inflammatory effect of ADMPC. Expression of immunosuppressive and pro-inflammatory-related cytokines by ADMPC treated with cytokine cocktail. Significant up-regulation of the (a) immunosuppressive cytokines GBP4, IL1RA, CXCL10, and IDO and down-regulation of the (b) pro-inflammatory cytokines IL6, IL17, and TNFα by ADMPC cultured with cytokine cocktail compared with the absence of cytokine treatment. (c) GBP4 and IL1RA gene expression of ADMPC compared with gingival fibroblasts. Data are expressed as the mean ± S.D. *p < 0.05 compared with the control.
