Blood oxygen saturation (SaO2) is one of the most important environmental factors in clinical
heart protection. This study used human heart samples and human induced pluripotent stem
cell− cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) to assess how SaO2 affects human CM cell cycle
activities. The results showed that there were significantly more cell cycle markers in the
moderate hypoxia group (SaO2: 75% to 85%) than in the other 2 groups (SaO2< 75% or>
85%). In iPSC-CMs 15% and 10% oxygen (O2) treatment increased cell cycle markers …
Summary
Blood oxygen saturation (SaO2) is one of the most important environmental factors in clinical heart protection. This study used human heart samples and human induced pluripotent stem cell−cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) to assess how SaO2 affects human CM cell cycle activities. The results showed that there were significantly more cell cycle markers in the moderate hypoxia group (SaO2: 75% to 85%) than in the other 2 groups (SaO2 <75% or >85%). In iPSC-CMs 15% and 10% oxygen (O2) treatment increased cell cycle markers, whereas 5% and rapid change of O2 decreased the markers. Moderate hypoxia is beneficial to the cell cycle activities of post-natal human CMs.
