Regulation of Hypoxia-Induced Cell Death in Human Tenocytes

Figure 7

Platelet rich concentrate protects tenocytes against hypoxia-induced cell death. Live & Dead staining of tenocytes following treatment of cells for 48 h under normoxia alone (a), with the addition of 30 ug/mL insulin (b) or 10% PRC conditioned medium (c) and following 48 h with 1% oxygen (d), with addition of 30 ug/mL insulin (e) or 10% PRC conditioned medium (f). (g) Percentage of dead cells versus total cells with hypoxia treatment alone or in combination with 10% PRC (mean ± SD, 𝑛=5). ^∗∗∗𝑃=0.0007 versus hypoxia.
