Fig. 1From: Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells from patients with atherosclerotic renovascular disease have increased DNA damage and reduced angiogenesis that can be modified by hypoxiaMorphologic appearance of AMSCs grown under normoxic and hypoxic conditions from healthy kidney donors (top row) and older individuals with atherosclerotic RVD (lower rows). Although growth rates were not changed under hypoxic conditions, the morphological appearance of AMSCs was different after hypoxia compared with normoxia (left, normoxia; right, hypoxia). The hypoxic AMSCs appeared bigger, denser and more granular (higher magnification - bottom row). AMSCs adipose-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells, RVD renovascular diseaseBack to article page
