Hypoxia-induced alternative splicing in endothelial cells [PDF]
Background: Adaptation to low oxygen by changing gene expression is vitally important for cell survival and tissue development. The sprouting of new blood vessels, initiated from endothelial cells, restores the oxygen supply of ischemic tissues.

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 activates IKK-NF-κB and the immune response in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
Hypoxia, or low oxygen availability, is an important physiological and pathological stimulus for multicellular organisms. Molecularly, hypoxia activates a transcriptional programme directed at restoration of oxygen homoeostasis and cellular survival ...

Expression of DDX3 is directly modulated by hypoxia inducible factor-1 alpha in breast epithelial cells [PDF]
DEAD box protein, DDX3, is aberrantly expressed in breast cancer cells ranging from weakly invasive to aggressive phenotypes and functions as an important regulator of cancer cell growth and survival.

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.

Hypoxia-induced signaling in angiogenesis : role of mTOR, HIF and Angiotensin II [PDF]
This thesis includes the work of four different projects I have been following during my time as a PhD student; (1) the characterization of mTOR-associated signaling and endothelial cell proliferation in response to hypoxia, and (2) identification of ...
