To understand the mechanism underlying the effects of ASCs on CAIA, we examined the serum levels of five cytokines (IL-15, IL-1α, IL-6, IL-7, and TNFα), five diabetes-related hormones (resistin, GIP, GLP-1, ghrelin, and leptin), and adiponectin using multiplex immunoassays. This evidence concerns the gene RETN and diabetes mellitus.
