| Research Abstract |
Therapeutic efficacy of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) on lethal bacterial infectious diseases was investigated. Injection of ASCs rescued mice from lethal staphylococcal enterotoxin shock. ASCs suppressed the production of proinflammatory cytokines. This study suggests that ASCs may apply to prevention andtherapy for lethal bacterial infectious diseases.
