“…Additionally, reduced neuropathological signs, either by decreasing the secretion of proinflammatory factors (IL-1α [151,153], IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α [150,151,153,155]), microglial activation [150,151,155], and improved cellular morphology [148], were also mentioned in these studies. Increased secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines [150,154], growth factors [148,153], and angiogenesis [139,148,149], expression of proteins such as SDF-1 and CXCR4 [149], and improved homing efficiency [139,149] and cell survival following transplantation [147,149,152] were also shown.…”
