“…Interestingly, artificial hypoxia-like states, such as exercise, can induce autophagy [63] . The hypoxic state has a significant effects on understanding [64] , prevention and stem cell/progenitor cell-related therapy for both cancer and OA [65,66]. Elucidating the interplay between autophagy, cancer and OA will provide unique opportunities to identify new therapeutic targets [67] and to develop novel treatment strategies and reduction of the side-effects of those affected by cancer chemotherapy via targeting both cellular homeostasis mechanisms, such as autophagy, and miRNAs epigenetics.…”
