It was demonstrated that severe hypoxia (500-μM CoCl2 ) significantly caused cell contraction and reduced cell area, roundness, adhesion, and migration of BMSCs.
In this study, CoCl2 was used to simulate severe hypoxia and the effects of mechano-growth factor (MGF) E peptide on the morphology, adhesion, migration, and proangiogenic capacity of BMSCs under hypoxia were measured.
