Research Abstract |
In this study, we evaluated the therapeutic effect of bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) or dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) systemic injection on experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model mice. In the clinical evaluation, both BMMSCs and DPSCs showed significant therapeutic effect including hind leg paralysis. However, BMMSCs injected group showed, in terms of immunological evaluation, higher up regulation of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in peripheral blood after 40days from EAE induction compare to DPSCs injected group.
