Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effect of hypoxia on the anti-inflammatory effect of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AMSCs) in vitro and its possible mechanism. AMSCs were cultured in vitro in a hypoxic environment with 3% O2, and a normoxic (21% O2) environment was used as the control. The cells were identified by in vitro adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation and cell surface antigen detection, and the cell viability were detected. The effect of hypoxic AMSCs on macrophage inflammation was analyzed by co-culture. The results showed that under hypoxia, AMSCs had better viability, significantly downregulated the expression of inflammatory factors, alleviated macrophage inflammation, and activated the PI3K/AKT/HIF-1α pathway.
