Figure 6

Anti-apoptotic effects of AdMSCs on salivary glands. (A) TUNEL analysis image at 16 weeks after AdMSC transplantation. (B) Quantified TUNEL positive apoptotic cells count. The number of apoptotic cells in RI + PBS sham group is higher than that of RI+AdMSCs and PBS sham group. Results are presented as means ± SEMs. One-way ANOVA, Tukey’s post hoc multiple comparison test. (*Compare to PBS sham #compare to RI + PBS treated, *p < 0.05). Abbreviation: AdMSC, adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells; PBS, phosphate-buffered saline; RI, radioiodine; TUNEL,Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling.
