Downregulation of EPAS1 and EGLN1 mRNA Expression Associated With High‐Altitude Adaptive Genetic Variants in Sherpa Highlanders

Annals of Human Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Sherpa highlanders exhibit remarkable tolerance to hypoxia, most likely due to genetic adaptations shaped by natural selection at high altitude. This study examined the roles of endothelial PAS domain protein 1 (EPAS1) and egl‐9 family hypoxia‐inducible factor 1 (EGLN1) in the genetic mechanisms underlying this adaptation ...

Nocturnal Sleep Breathing Patterns in Healthy Adolescents Residing at Very High Altitudes in Bolivia

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Data on sleep and respiratory patterns among adolescents residing at very high altitude (> 3500 m) remain scarce, and altitude‐related physiological differences may influence these parameters. Studying adolescents at different very high altitudes is crucial, as subtle environmental variations could affect sleep‐related oxygenation and ...

Elevational variation in heart mass and suppression of hypoxia‐induced right ventricle hypertrophy in Andean leaf‐eared mice (Phyllotis)

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In lowland mammals that ascend to high elevation, hypoxia‐induced changes in the pulmonary circulation can give rise to hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) and associated right‐ventricle (RV) hypertrophy. Andean mice with broad elevational ranges have greater heart mass relative to body size at higher elevations, but they ...
