Figure 5. Proposed mechanism about ADMSCs may alleviate UC. (A) The proposed mechanism that macrophages may contribute to UC by communicating with enterocytes via ligand-receptor interactions. (B) Proposed mechanism of how ADMSCs may alleviate UC by communicating with macrophages and blocking inflammation. ADMSCs: adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells. UC: ulcerative colitis.
