Fig. 4From: Short-term physiological hypoxia potentiates the therapeutic function of mesenchymal stem cellsSecretion profile of MSCs under long-term and short-term hypoxia. (a) In long-term culture, IL-8 levels were suppressed under hypoxia in both human and porcine MSCs. (b) In short-term culture, IL-8 was similarly suppressed under hypoxia in both human and porcine MSCs (p < 0.06). In pMSCs, significantly higher levels of the anti-inflammatories, GM-CSF (p < 0.05) and IL-1ra (p < 0.01) were secreted under hypoxia, as compared to normoxiaBack to article page
