Protective Effects of BCC Against Oxidative Stress in Cardiomyocyte Cells

The study found that Blood Cells Concentrate (BCC) can protect cardiomyocyte cells from oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). BCC reduced oxidative stress and cell damage, lowered intracellular ROS levels, and suppressed apoptosis by decreasing cleaved caspase-9 and Bax protein expression. These results suggest that BCC, containing growth factors and CD34+ cells, may be a promising treatment for heart diseases caused by oxidative stress, though further research is needed to understand the mechanisms and standardize BCC preparation.
