MSC derived CCL2 is required for increased M2 polarisation of macrophages within the wound. (a) Representative images of wound sections d-10, stained for pan macrophage marker F4/80 (red) and M2 marker CD206 (green), cell nuclei were counter stained with DAPI (blue), for clarity arrowheads indicate CD206+ cells, scale bar 50 μm. (b) Left- total macrophage within the wound bed, no difference between any of the groups was detected at d-10 (n ≥ 8 ns, not significant). (b) Right- percentage macrophages co-expressing CD206 was significantly increased in MSC-WT treated wounds compared to both control and MSC-KO treated wounds. (n ≥ 8 ns, not significant ***p < 0.001).
