Consistent with mesenteric derived MSCs, stimulated subcutaneous MSCs secreted increased IL‐6 and IL12p40 after incubation with IFN‐γ and IL‐17 (Figure 3B), suggesting that IBD‐associated inflammatory cytokines IFN‐γ and IL‐17 upregulate cytokine secretion of MSCs. This evidence concerns the gene IL6 and inflammatory bowel disease.
