Pharmaceutical composition comprising mesenchymal stem cells as effective ingredient for prevention or treatment of inflammatory disease

Abstract

A pharmaceutical composition comprising HLA-A2-expressing mesenchymal stem cells as an effective ingredient and its use in prevention or treatment of inflammatory disease are disclosed. The mesenchymal stem cells expressing HLA-A2 on the surface thereof inhibit the secretion of the inflammatory cytokine TNF-a and increase the expression of the anti-inflammatory markers CD163 and Arg-1, so that the pharmaceutical composition comprising the mesenchymal stem cells as an effective ingredient can be advantageously used for suppressing inflammation or treating inflammatory diseases.
