This document describes the development of a high-speed time-lapse video platform for analyzing the effects of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) and ion channel modulators on cardiomyocyte contraction. The platform involves isolating cardiomyocytes from neonatal rats and imaging their contraction in response to various compounds using high-speed phase-contrast microscopy and analysis software. Validation experiments demonstrated that the platform could detect increases in contraction rate induced by epinephrine and blocked by agents that deplete calcium or inhibit voltage-gated calcium channels. The goal is to use this system to examine the selectivity of Synta Pharmaceuticals' calcium-release activated calcium channel inhibitors on cardiomyocytes.
This document discusses how growing human mesenchymal stem cells at lower, physiological oxygen concentrations of 3% instead of the standard 20% can increase their lifespan and genetic stability by reducing oxidative stress and DNA damage. Specifically, lower oxygen tension limits telomere shortening and chromosomal aberrations. It is concluded that stem cells for human therapy should be cultured under low oxygen conditions to increase their biosafety.
The document discusses tissue reconstruction and regeneration processes after injury. There are four main types of reconstruction: repair, regeneration, replacement by different tissue (fibrosis/scarring), and replacement by the same tissue. Stem cells can aid reconstruction through differentiation. Mesenchymal stem cells from sources like bone marrow, adipose tissue, and umbilical cord are discussed as promising for regenerative applications due to their abundance, ease of harvest, and ability to differentiate into multiple cell types. The importance of using low oxygen conditions for culturing stem cells is also summarized.

HBOT may help reduce cognitive decline after CABG surgery and protect cells against stress. HBOT stimulates vascular tube formation, protects cells against heat shock, and regulates gene expression related to oxidative stress response. It increases expression of genes involved in cell proliferation, migration, and wound healing while decreasing expression of genes related to ER and Golgi pathways. HBOT promotes rapid recovery from injury through multiple protective and regenerative mechanisms.
This document provides an overview of a course on HIF (hypoxia-inducible factor) in cell biology and physiology. The course aims to explore how oxygen levels vary both in cell culture and in vivo, understand the molecular basis of the HIF pathway, and consider various factors that contribute to and result from HIF activation. Key points covered include the roles of oxygen transport and tissue oxygenation, the regulation of HIF by prolyl hydroxylases, and the adaptive cellular responses mediated by HIF, such as erythropoiesis and angiogenesis. The impacts of HIF in cancer biology and its complex interactions with other pathways are also briefly discussed.
This document summarizes a presentation given by Prof. Max Gassmann on the impacts of erythropoietin (Epo) on circulation and exercise performance. Some key points:
- Epo increases red blood cell production and hematocrit levels, improving oxygen delivery. However, too high hematocrit levels can reduce performance due to increased blood viscosity.
- Transgenic mice overexpressing Epo had hematocrits over 80% and showed reduced exercise capacity, as well as organ damage over time.
- The optimal hematocrit for maximal endurance performance in mice is around 57-68%. Above this, increased blood viscosity limits performance.
- Long-term complications can occur in humans and animals

There have been a number of published reports recently suggesting a substantial amount of cancer related studies published in high-impact scientific journals could not be reproduced outside of their originator laboratories. These discoveries are remarkably problematic as many of the drugs screened are being developed past the preclinical stage, into human testing and ultimately FDA approval. Further, many individual labs are also having difficulties repeating cellular findings in cancer biology from one day to the next highlighting the need to improve study designs for preclinical research into metastasis and the targeting of cancer cells.

What is hyperoxia, normoxia and hypoxia to cells: Why researchers should care...InsideScientific
?
Oxygen influences multiple physiological parameters within cells. In addition to monitoring and controlling for CO2, humidity and temperature, scientists should consider the assessment of oxygen levels for in vitro studies. By removing a potential confounding factor, researchers can improve both scientific reproducibility and relevant outcomes.
This webinar hosted by Scintica Instrumentation builds on these concepts and discusses the importance of oxygen in cell culture. Dr. Nicky Pansters describes a better method for defining O2 concentration as well as options for monitoring and controlling oxygen levels. He also provides a brief overview of relevant scientific publications. Webinar participants will gain a better understanding of how accurate oxygen regulation will contribute to improved reproducibility of their experimental work, and what next steps to take to improve future research outputs.
Topics discussed in this webinar include:
- The meaning of hyperoxic, normoxic and hypoxic conditions at the cellular level
- How hyperoxic conditions affect the HIF1 transcription factor and its many downstream effects
- How oxygen is beginning to play a larger and larger role in cellular labs
- The future of hypoxic/normoxic cell culturing in research
Gregg L. Semenza discusses hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) and their role in physiology and medicine. HIFs control oxygen homeostasis by regulating erythropoietin production and red blood cell production. They also play a role in cardiovascular disease by mediating vascularization and in cancer by promoting tumor growth and metastasis. HIFs activate genes involved in angiogenesis, cancer stem cell maintenance, immune evasion, and premetastatic niche formation. Inhibiting HIF activity has been shown to reduce tumor growth and improve outcomes for cancer and cardiovascular disease.

2. Experiments characterize metabolic components and responses at the cellular, tissue, and whole-body levels under various perturbations like exercise, diseases, and drug treatments.
3. Computational models integrate experimental data to generate testable hypotheses about metabolic regulation and control. Models link cellular processes to tissue and whole-body responses.
4. Examples analyze muscle metabolism in diabetes and energy homeostasis in cystic fibrosis to better understand disease states and develop therapies.
This document provides an overview of oxygen (O2) levels and their influence on cell culture experiments. It defines terms like hypoxia, normoxia, and hyperoxia in relation to different tissue oxygen levels. The document discusses how O2 levels inside a standard CO2 incubator create hyperoxic conditions for cells, as the O2 partial pressure is 141 mmHg compared to physiological levels of 40-100 mmHg in tissues. It also summarizes the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) signaling pathway, which senses oxygen levels in cells and regulates gene expression. The takeaway messages are that researchers should carefully define and control O2 levels in experiments to match physiological conditions and improve reproducibility.
