Figure 5

Colon length recovery after treatment with 3D-cultured TMSCs. (a) The colon length shortening in the 3D-TMSC-treated group was significantly lower than that in the DSS + PBS control (P < 0.001), DSS + HEK control (P = 0.001) and 2D-TMSC-treated groups (P = 0.001). (b) The lengths of the colon in each group are indicated. 3D, three-dimensional; 2D, two-dimensional; TMSCs, tonsil-derived mesenchymal stem cells; DSS, dextran sulfate sodium; PBS, phosphate-buffered saline.
