The CMS19 disease model specifies a pivotal role for collagen XIII in bone homeostasis
Mutations in the COL13A1 gene result in congenital myasthenic syndrome type 19 (CMS19), a disease of neuromuscular synapses and including various skeletal manifestations, particularly facial dysmorphisms. The phenotypic consequences in Col13a1 null mice (

Hypoxia and Hypoxia-Inducible Factors in Lymphedema
Lymphedema is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by edema, fat deposition, and fibrotic tissue remodeling. Despite significant advances in lymphatic biology research, our knowledge of lymphedema pathology is incomplete. Currently, there is no approved pharmacological therapy for this debilitating disease.

Hypoxia and hypoxia-inducible factors in neuroblastoma [PDF]
Hypoxia (i.e., low oxygen levels) is a known feature of aggressive tumors. Cells, including tumor cells, respond to conditions of insufficient oxygen by activating a transcriptional program mainly driven by hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF)-1 and HIF-2.

The paradox between resistance to hypoxia and liability to hypoxic damage in hyperglycemic peripheral nerves. Evidence for glycolysis involvement [PDF]
Isolated ventral and dorsal rat spinal roots incubated in normal (2.5 mM) or high glucose (25 mM) concentrations or in high concentrations of other hexoses were exposed transiently to hypoxia (30 min) in a solution of low buffering power.

Metabolism of asymmetric dimethylarginine in hypoxia: from bench to bedside
Acute hypoxia and chronic hypoxia induce pulmonary vasoconstriction. While hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction is a physiological response if parts of the lung are affected, global exposure to hypoxic conditions may lead to clinical conditions like high ...

The Somatotropic Axis in the Sleep Apnea-Obesity Comorbid Duo
Background: Growth hormone (GH) stimulates the production of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) in most tissues and together GH and IGF-1 profoundly impact adipose tissue deposition, glucose metabolism and cardiovascular function.

Vascular changes in the rat brain during chronic hypoxia in the presence and absence of hypercapnia. [PDF]
Changes in brain vascularity in adult rats during adaptation to chronic normobaric hypoxia with or without elevated CO(2) were morphometrically investigated.

In some subjects, high-altitude hypobaric hypoxia leads to high-altitude pulmonary hypertension. The threshold for the diagnosis of high-altitude pulmonary hypertension is a mean pulmonary artery pressure of 30 mmHg, even though for general pulmonary ...
