Article Title: Hypoxia-Induced Mitochondrial ROS and Function in Pulmonary Arterial Endothelial Cells

doi: 10.3390/cells13211807

Figure Lengend Snippet: Hypoxia increases the formation of ROS in human pulmonary artery endothelial cells, and mitochondrial complex I and complex III are responsible for ROS production. ( A ) Exposure to hypoxia for 10 min significantly increased the formation of H 2 O 2 in human PAECs. Cells were incubated with Amplex UltraRed (50 µM) for 20 min. The fluorescence produced by Amplex UltraRed was measured using the FlexStation III reader as an indicator of H 2 O 2 production. Data are from three different experiments and are expressed as mean ± S.E.M. * p < 0.05 compared to normoxia, n = 4. ( B ) Cells were transfected with HyPer for 2 days, treated for 10 min without (control) and with rotenone (10 µM) or myxothiazol (10 μM), and then exposed to hypoxia. The bar graph illustrates that hypoxia enhanced the formation of H 2 O 2 in human PAECs and rotenone and myxothiazol blocked this response, suggesting a role of complex I and complex III in this phenomenon. HyPer-derived fluorescence was measured using an LSM510 confocal microscope. Data are expressed as the media ± S.E.M. and were obtained from at least 50 cells in each group. * p < 0.05 compared to normoxia, n = 5.

Article Snippet: Primary human PAECs were purchased from Lonza (Allendale, NJ, USA) and cultured in Lonza’s EGM-2 media with growth factor (CC-3162 and CC-3129) in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO 2 and 95% air at 37 °C.

Article Title: Definition of Synovial Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Meniscus Regeneration by the Mechanism of Action and General Amp1200 Gene Expression.

doi: 10.3390/ijms251910510

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 1. Cell clustering by Amp1200. Lots of SyMSCs (4 donors: S1, S2, S3 and S4), ADSCs (3 donors: A1, A2 and A3), BMSCs (3 donors: B1, B2 and B3), RECs (3 donors: R1, R2 and R3), FBs, iMSCs, WPs, PAECs, T cells, and CD14+ monocytes were clustered by the expression level of genes obtained by Amp1200. The black lines at the top and left showed the results of the clustering. A similar clustering analysis using all 25,193 human genes is shown in Figure S1.

Article Snippet: Human FBs (Lonza, Basel, Switzerland, CC-2509), human PAECs (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA, PCS-100022), human WPs (PromoCell, Heidelberg, Germany, C-12732), human T cells (Lonza, Basel, Switzerland, 2W-200), and human CD14+ monocytes (PromoCell, Heidelberg, Germany, C-12909) were cultured as follows.
