Fig 7. Homing of DFMSCs in submandibular and lacrimal glands in SS mouse model.

Fig 7

Quantum dot 655 (Qdot-655) labeled cells were analyzed with a fluorescence microscope in the glandular tissues of the SS murine model on the 7th and 28th days after intraperitoneal, and local injections of DFMSCs. Qdot labeled DFMSCs were located in submandibular and lacrimal glands within 7 days when injected locally. Intraperitoneally injected DFMSCs migrated preferentially to submandibular glands in the first 7 days and localized as foci in the exocrine gland for up to 28 days.
