Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Human adipose tissue-derived multilineage progenitor cells (hADMPCs) are attractive for cell therapy and tissue engineering because of their multipotency and ease of isolation without serial ethical issues. Here, we show that Notch signaling is required for glycolysis regulation under hypoxic conditions. Our results demonstrate that 5% O2 dramatically increased the glycolysis rate, improved the proliferation efficiency, prevented senescence, and maintained the multi potency of hADMPCs. Hypoxia significantly increased the level of activated Notch1 and expression of its downstream gene, HES1. Furthermore, Hypoxia markedly increased glucose consumption and lactate production, which decreased back to normoxic levels on treatment with a g-secretase inhibitor. We also found that HES1 was involved in induction of GLUT3, TPI, and PGK1 in addition to reduction of TIGAR and SCO2 expression. These results clearly suggest that Notch signaling regulates glycolysis under hypoxic conditions.
