Growing evidences show that mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) home to tumorgenesis and inhibit tumor cells, however, their molecular mechanisms are unclear. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of B7-H4 in the influence of the mouse MSC on the proliferation of lymphoma cell line EL-4. The expression of B7-H4 on the MSC cell line C3H10T1/2 (C3H10) was detected by using immunofluorescence.
