Do mesenchymal stromal cells abrogate the immune response in massive cortical allograft recipients?

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the humoral and cellular immune response against bone associated antigens when delivered in a vaccine, and to evaluate the immunomodulation on the aforementioned immune response with the addition of adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (AD-MSCs). ANIMALS: 68 C57BL/6 mice PROCEDURES: Femur fragments harvested from Balb/C or C57BL/6 mice were resuspended in PBS and cationic liposomal DNA complexes (CLDC) to create an allograft or autograft vaccine, respectively. A positive control vaccine was created utilizing bovine alkaline phosphatase (ALP) resuspended in PBS and ...
