Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 2015 There is an important and strong, but complex influence of the tumor microenvironment on tumor cells' phenotype, aggressiveness, and treatment sensitivity. One of the most frequent and best-studied aspects of the tumor microenvironment is hypoxia. Low oxygen tension often occurs in tumor cells by several mechanisms, for example, poor angiogenesis and ...

Hypoxia helps glioma to fight therapy [PDF]
, 2009 Despite major improvements in the surgical management the prognosis for patients bearing malignant gliomas is still dismal. Malignant gliomas are notoriously resistant to treatment and the survival time of patients is between 3-8 years for low-grade and

Normobaric hypoxia overnight impairs cognitive reaction time
BMC Neuroscience, 2017 Background Impaired reaction time in patients suffering from hypoxia during sleep, caused by sleep breathing disorders, is a well-described phenomenon. High altitude sleep is known to induce periodic breathing with central apneas and oxygen desaturations,

Triggering of erythropoietin production by hypoxia is inhibited by respiratory and metabolic acidosis [PDF]
, 1990 Erythropoietin (EPO) production in response to hypoxic hypoxia is known to be attenuated by simultaneous hypercapnia. This study aimed to investigate whether this inhibitory effect of hypercapnia is 1) a direct effect of carbon dioxide or mediated by ...

Pulmonary Circulation, 2020 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 ...

Rate of erythropoietin formation in humans in response to acute hypobaric hypoxia [PDF]
, 1989 This study was carried out to investigate the early changes in erythropoietin (EPO) formation in humans in response to hypoxia. Six volunteers were exposed to simulated altitudes of 3,000 and 4,000 m in a decompression chamber for 5.5 h. EPO was measured
