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 ...

Oxydative stress in type 2 diabetic patients: involvement of HIF-1 alpha AND mTOR genes expression [PDF]
Biochemical and genetic mechanisms of oxidative stress (OS) developing in the blood of patients with type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were studied. Twenty patients with T2DM and 10 healthy persons participated in this study.

Intrapulmonary shunting and pulmonary gas exchange during normoxic and hypoxic exercise in healthy humans [PDF]
Exercise-induced intrapulmonary arteriovenous shunting, as detected by saline contrast echocardiography, has been demonstrated in healthy humans. We have previously suggested that increases in both pulmonary pressures and blood flow associated with ...

Research progress of orexin on the regulation of cardiovascular activities [PDF]
Orexin(OX) is a neuropeptide mainly released by the hypothalamus. In the central nervous system, orexin neurons form extensive connections with other neuronal nuclei and participate in energy metabolism, sleep cycle and cardiovascular activity regulation.

Hypoxia up-regulates SERPINB3 through HIF-2\u3b1 in human liver cancer cells. [PDF]
SERPINB3 is a cysteine-proteases inhibitor up-regulated in a significant number of cirrhotic patients carrying hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and recently proposed as a prognostic marker for HCC early recurrence.

Hypoxic regulation of ion channel function and expression [PDF]
Acute hypoxia regulates the activity of specific ion channels in a rapid and reversible manner. Such effects underlie appropriate cellular responses to hypoxia which are designed to initiate cardiorespiratory reflexes and contribute importantly to other ...

In healthy vascular endothelium, nitric oxide acts as a vasodilator paracrine mediator on adjacent smooth muscle cells. By activating soluble guanylyl cyclase, nitric oxide stimulates cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) which causes relaxation of ...

One special question to start with: can HIF/NFkB be a target in inflammation? [PDF]
Hypoxia and Inflammation are strictly interconnected with important consequences at clinical and therapeutic level. While cell and tissue damage due to acute hypoxia mostly leads to cell necrosis, in chronic hypoxia, cells that are located closer to ...
