Objectives: Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs) are useful in cell-based therapy. However, it is well known that diabetes mellitus (DM) alters ASCs' functionality. The majority of studies related to ASCs are developed under non-physiological oxygen conditions. Therefore, they may not reflect the full effects of DM on ASCs, . The main aim of the current study is to identify molecular pathways and underlying biological mechanisms affected by diabetes on ASCs in physiological oxygen conditions.
Materials And Methods: ASCs derived from healthy (ASCs-C) and diabetic (ASCs-D) rats were expanded under standard culture conditions (21% O) or cultured in physiological oxygen conditions (3% O) and characterized. Differential gene expressions (DEGs) of ASCs-D with respect to ASCs-C were identified and analyzed with bioinformatic tools. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks, from up- and down-regulated DEGs, were also constructed.
Results: The bioinformatic analysis revealed 1354 up-regulated and 859 down-regulated DEGs in ASCs-D, with 21 and 78 terms over and under-represented, respectively. Terms linked with glycosylation and ribosomes were over-represented and terms related to the activity of RNA-polymerase II and transcription regulation were under-represented. PPI network disclosed RPL11-RPS5 and KDR-VEGFA as the main interactions from up- and down-regulated DEGs, respectively.
Conclusion: These results provide valuable information about gene pathways and underlying molecular mechanisms by which diabetes disturbs ASCs biology in physiological oxygen conditions. Furthermore, they reveal, molecular targets to improve the use of ASCs in autologous transplantation.

Background: Cerebral autoregulation is a robust regulatory mechanism that stabilizes cerebral blood flow in response to reduced blood pressure, thereby preventing cerebral ischaemia. Scientists have long believed that cerebral autoregulation also stabilizes cerebral blood flow against increases in intracranial pressure, which is another component that determines cerebral perfusion pressure. However, this idea was inconsistent with the complex pathogenesis of normal pressure hydrocephalus, which includes components of chronic cerebral ischaemia due to mild increases in intracranial pressure.

Macrophages exhibit diverse phenotypes depending on environment status, which contribute to physiological and pathological processes of immunological diseases, including sepsis, asthma, multiple sclerosis and colitis. The alternative activation of macrophages is tightly regulated to avoid excessive activation and damage of tissues and organs. Certain works characterized that succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) altered function of macrophages and promoted inflammatory response in M1 macrophages via mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Background: The balance of redox states is crucial for maintaining physiological homeostasis. For decades, the focus has been mainly on the concept of oxidative stress, which is involved in the mechanism of almost all diseases. However, robust evidence has highlighted that reductive stress, the other side of the redox spectrum, plays a pivotal role in the development of various diseases, particularly those related to metabolism and cardiovascular health.
