Abstract:Background: Hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) has been used for more than a decade to treat diverse diseases like diabetic foot ulcers and ischemic injuries. More recently, HBOT has been reported to modulate proliferation of neural and intestinal stem cell populations, but the molecular mechanisms underlying these effects are not completely understood. Objective: In this study we aimed to determine HBOT stem cell modulation by evaluating in particular the role of the mTOR complex 1 (mTORc1), a key regulator o… Show more
