Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells Ameliorate Inflammation-Related Tumorigenesis via Modulating Macrophages by Yanxia Fu, Jun Li, Mengdi Li, Junfeng Xu, Zheng Rong, Fangli Ren, Yinyin Wang, Jianqiu Sheng, Zhijie Chang

“…Indeed, HUC-MSCs dramatically ameliorated the disease symptoms and pathological changes of DSS-induced colitis mice. We deciphered the mechanism that HUC-MSCs inhibited tumorigenesis through reducing the proportion of macrophages, which were decreased in the mice suffered from AOM/DSS-induced colon cancer. …”
