Increasing evidence indicates that ASCs play a significant role in skin regen-
eration, a function that is enhanced by hypoxia through upregulating secre-
tion of growth factors. Although the anatomical sites of ASCs in the body are
relatively oxygen-deficient, ASCs are usually cultured under normoxic condi-
tions (i.e., atmospheric oxygen levels). Culturing ASCs under physiologically
relevant low-oxygen-tension conditions may uniquely benefit the expansion,
differentiation, adhesion, growth factor secretion and regenerative potential

1. Introduction
Regenerative medicine uses the body’s own stem cells and growth factors as an
alternative therapeutic strategy for repairing damaged soft tissue such as skin.
Although such cell-based therapies are becoming more prominent, the limited
availability of human cells capable of self-renewal and differentiation into skin-type
cells are barriers to their expanded application. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs)
and their soluble factors, however, can be used to regenerate skin and thus offer a
potential workable solution to this dilemma [1-6]. ASCs can be easily obtained by
liposuction from human adipose tissue, they can be cultured on a large scale and
they can display multilineage developmental plasticity [7-9]. In addition to serving
a building-block function, ASCs secrete various growth factors that control and
regenerate damaged skin-type cells, a function that has been identified as essential
to the regenerative mechanisms of ASCs [1-4,10]. For example, ASCs and their solu-
ble factors accelerate wound healing, reduce wrinkling, improve pigmentation and
promote hair growth by activating neighboring cells in skin [1,3-5,10]. Recently, we
have demonstrated that hypoxia enhanced the regenerative function of ASCs by
increasing the secretion of growth factors [11]; however, the underlying mechanism
has not been fully characterized.
Oxygen deficiency may impair cell function. However, cellular responses to
hypoxic stress are highly dependent on cell type, maturity and environment. In
humans, oxygen concentrations vary significantly among tis- in promoting epithelial proliferation and differentiation, in
