The Hypoxic Microenvironment of Stem Cells and their Progenies of the Hear

چکیده
Ischemic cardiovascular disease, including myocardial infarction and heart failure, is among the primary causes of death worldwide. Therapies utilizing stem cells for cardiovascular regeneration in humans represent promising strategies to treat cardiovascular disease. In the adult heart, the hypoxic microenvironment typical of pathological conditions such as heart failure and myocardial infarction triggers the transcription of a series of genes involved in the regulation of deleterious effects caused by oxygen insufficiency at the cellular, tissue, and systemic levels. During embryonic cardiovascular development, variations in oxygen content within the stem cell microenvironment play a major role in the regulation of a diverse range of cellular processes, such as glycolysis, angiogenesis, apoptosis and cell proliferation. This review will provide an overview of the roles played by the hypoxic microenvironment on stem cells and their progenies of the heart in vivo and in vitro for optimal designing of the microenvironment for regenerative studies in humans.

Cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs) have emerged as one of the most promising stem cell types for cardiac protection and repair. Exosomes are required for the regenerative effects of human CDCs and mimic the cardioprotective benefits of CDCs such as anti-apoptotic effect in animal myocardial infarction (MI) models. Here we aimed to investigate the anti-apoptotic effect of the hypoxic and normoxic...

Background Recent studies revealed that tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play a decisive role in the regulation of tumor progression by manipulating tumor oncogenesis, angiogenesis and immune functions within tumor microenvironments. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), which is a point of convergence for numerous oncogenic signalling pathways, is constitutively activ...
