Abstract Since stem cell therapy is the most effective treatment in the field of tissue reparation and reconstitution, the
present study aimed to explore the different sources of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on the different effects of
pulmonary fibrosis-related cytokines in C57BL/6 mice. For reaching this goal, we isolated MSCs from umbilical cord
blood and placenta and used for stem cell therapy in a mouse model of pulmonary fibrosis model. The pulmonary
fibrosis model was done by injecting bleomycin into the trachea of C57BL/6 mice. Then we assessed the degree of
pulmonary fibrosis in each mouse lung tissue at weeks 1,… More >
