Abstract excerpt
Most embryonic stem (ES) cell research is performed with a gas phase oxygen partial pressure (pO(2)) of 142 mmHg, whereas embryonic cells in early development are exposed to pO(2) values of 0-30 mmHg. To understand effects of these differences, we studied murine ES (mES) growth, maintenance of stem cell phenotype, and cell energetics over a pO(2) range of 0-285 mmHg, in the presence or absence of...
