Antibacterial activity of human mesenchymal stem cells mediated directly by constitutively secreted factors and indirectly by activation of innate immune effector cells

Abstract Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) have been shown to improve wound healing and suppress inflammatory immune responses. Newer research also indicates that MSC exhibit antimicrobial activity, although the mechanisms underlying this activity have not been fully elucidated. Therefore, we conducted i...
