Cytokines and growth factors measured in medium from cultured cells before storage and in storage medium following one-week storage. For comparison of secretion during storage, figures show non-stored control cell secretion after subtraction of CNT-Prime culture medium alone (without cells). IL = interleukin; MMP = matrix metalloproteinase; TIMP = tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase; VEGF = vascular endothelial growth factor; (*=significantly increased; §=significantly decreased; p ≤ 0.05).
