hUC-MSCs did not alter the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in SU5416-induced emphysema. (A∼C) RQ-PCR detect IL-1β, IL-6 and TNFα mRNA expression in lungs, respectively. (D∼F) ELISA detect IL-1β, IL-6 and TNFα protein expression in BALF, respectively. hUC-MSCs had no significant effect on inflammatory response in normal or damaged lung tissues.
