Acetazolamide prevents hypoxia‐induced reactive oxygen species generation and calcium release in pulmonary arterial smooth muscle

Pulmonary Circulation, 2021
Upon sensing a reduction in local oxygen partial pressure, pulmonary vessels constrict, a phenomenon known as hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction. Excessive hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction can occur with ascent to high altitude and is a contributing ...
