AD-MSCs, but not HNDFs, reduced expression of AMs on U937. AD-MSCs-CM and HNDFs-CM were tested on the adhesion molecules expression of the U937 monocyte cell line stimulated or not with TNFα (25 ng/ml × 12 hrs). Mean Fluorescent Intensity (MFI) of each marker expression was evaluated by FACS and values are the mean ± SD of independent experiments performed with 3 different preparations of AD-MSCs-CM and HNDFs-CM. In (A) the expression of CD54/ICAM-1, (B) the expression of CD44, (C) the expression of CD42L/L-selectin and in (D) the expression of CD49d/VLA-4. Note that, both AD-MSCs-CM and HNDFs-CM did not affect basal adhesion molecules expression on U937. However, AD-MSCs-CM, but not HNDFs-CM (at 1:1), inhibited CD54/ICAM-1, CD44 and CD42L/L-selectin up-modulation produced by TNFα stimuli. CD49d expression was not affected by either AD-MSCs-CM or HNDFs-CM. * p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 versus CTRL.
