Abstract (original English)
Background aims Transplantation of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC), including adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASC), is a promising option in the treatment of vascular disease. Short-term hypoxic culture of MSC augments secretion of anti-apoptotic and angiogenic cytokines. We hypothesized that prolonged hypoxic (1% and 5% oxygen) culture and trypsinization would augment ASC expression of anti-apoptotic and angiogenic cytokines and increase the angiogenic potential of ASC-conditioned media. Methods The effects of prolonged hypoxic culture on growth and pro-angiogenic properties were investigated using human ASC cultured at 1%, 5% and 21% oxygen. The effect of trypsinization on the expression of pro-angiogenic genes was also determined. Results Trypsinization induced up-regulation of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) genes independent of oxygen concentration. The expression of VEGF and IGF-1 was up-regulated in ASC cultured at 1% oxygen for 13 days compared with 4 days. The VEGF concentration in ASC-conditioned media was higher after prolonged hypoxic culture compared with short-term culture, while the IGF-1 and chemokine (CXC motif) ligand 12 (CXCL12) concentrations were unchanged. The VEGF receptor blocker SU5416 abolished angiogenesis in a cultured rat aortic ring model. Media from cells exposed to hypoxia increased angiog
