Prevention of lymphocyte activation in MSC bioreactors. PBMCs were labeled with ViaFluor, stimulated (PHA/IL-2) and perfused for 5-days via circuits containing microreactors seeded with 0, or 9 ×106 MSCs per device. MSC treatment was shown to inhibit T-cell proliferation as demonstrated by ViaFluor labelling (A). This was observed for four PBMC donors (n = 4 donors, n = 3/donor) (B). Percent decrease in PBMC proliferation with MSC (9 M) is indicated. Perfusion via MSC-seeded microreactors (9 M) exhibited changes in CD4, CD8, and CD19 + lymphocytes when compared to acellular controls (0 M) (n = 2 donors, n = 3/donor) (C). Graphs show average values for each cell dose group + standard deviations for two donors. A student’s t-test was performed on each set. **p ≤ 0.01 *p ≤ 0.05.
