Effect of chronic high‐altitude hypoxia on retinal vascular phenotype, choroidal and retinal vasoreactivity in Peruvian highlanders

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐altitude chronic hypoxia can induce excessive erythrocytosis (EE, defined as a haemoglobin concentration of ≥21 g/dL in men), leading to hyperviscosity and promoting endothelial dysfunction. We aimed to assess whether EE affects the retinal vascular phenotype and the ophthalmological vascular response to CO2.

Far‐infrared sauna exposure at 65°C elevates core temperature

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Far‐infrared (FIR) saunas are increasingly used as a passive heating and ‘wellness’ modality, yet their capacity to elevate core temperature remains unclear, particularly given prior work at lower temperatures (∼45°C) reports limited net heat storage.

Placental mitochondrial metabolic adaptation maintains cellular energy balance in pregnancy complicated by gestational hypoxia

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Placental mitochondrial adaptation to gestational hypoxia. Hypoxic pregnancy in sheep increases placental insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF2) signalling (1), which is associated with a shift in capacity away from β‐oxidation (2) and complex I‐mediated respiration (3), while maintaining total oxidative phosphorylation capacity (4).

Determinants of maximal oxygen uptake in highly trained females and males: a mechanistic study of sex differences using advanced invasive methods

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The results from this study show that maximal cardiac output, stroke volume and leg blood flow are similar between highly trained females and males after normalisation to lean body mass (LBM). However, the 10% higher haemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) and arterial O2 content in males result in higher systemic and leg O2 delivery ...

Endocrine and androgenic response to altitude training in professional cyclists

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Steroidal and endocrine variables are altered during altitude training. Abstract This study investigated endocrine and steroidal blood markers in 31 male elite cyclists monitored over 7 weeks, including a 3 week altitude training camp either at 2050 m (n = 19) or 3000 m (n = 12).

Augmenting erythropoiesis using recombinant human erythropoietin at sea level blunts the high altitude induced increase in erythropoiesis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Pharmacologically augmenting erythropoiesis with rEPO at sea level blunts the high altitude induced erythropoiesis. Abstract Erythropoiesis increases with high altitude (HA) acclimatization. Recombinant human erythropoietin (rEPO) induces erythropoiesis.

Long‐term passive heat acclimation enhances maximal oxygen consumption via haematological and cardiac adaptation in endurance runners

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Figure Legend Endurance‐trained runners completed a 5‐week hot‐water‐immersion (HWI) intervention (≥40°C, 45 min, five sessions per week) and a training‐matched control period in a cross‐over design. HWI induced a 33 g increase in haemoglobin mass (Hbmass) and a 10 mL expansion in left‐ventricular end‐diastolic volume (LVEDV), resulting in a 2.

Maximal exercise at high altitude does not exacerbate inflammation in the human brain

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This study investigated arterial–internal jugular venous (IJV) exchange of cytokines in response to low‐intensity and maximal cycling exercise at sea level and following 6–8 days at 3800 m a.s.l. There was a shift towards net release of interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), interleukin‐8 (IL‐8), monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1 (MCP‐1) and ...

Mechanisms reducing parasympathetic activity in chronic hypoxia

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Parasympathetic activity is reduced in chronic hypoxia, but the underlying mechanism(s) are unclear. Using β‐adrenergic blockade to isolate parasympathetic control of heart rate at sea level and after 9‐12 days at high altitude, we investigated whether (i) chemoreflex activation, (ii) increased pulmonary ventilation and/or (iii ...
