Exaggerated exercise-induced pulmonary hypertension causes lung water accumulation and right ventricular dysfunction in patients with chronic mountain sickness
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2010-08-08)
Systemic vascular dysfunction in patients with chronic mountain sickness
(CHEST, 2012-01-01)
Background: Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is a major public health problem characterized by
exaggerated hypoxemia and erythrocytosis. In more advanced stages, patients with CMS often
present with functional and structural ...
Pulmonary and systemic vascular dysfunction in young offspring of mothers with preeclampsia
(Circulation, 2010-07-19)
Background—Adverse events in utero may predispose to cardiovascular disease in adulthood. The underlying mechanisms are unknown. During preeclampsia, vasculotoxic factors are released into the maternal circulation by the ...
High altitude hypoxia and blood pressure dysregulation in adult chickens
(Journal of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease, 2013)
Although it is accepted that impaired placental perfusion in complicated pregnancy can slow fetal growth and programme an increased risk of cardiovascular dysfunction at adulthood, the relative contribution of reductions ...

Climate change and variability are both a developmental and an environmental issue. Adaptation to climate change and variability has gained a prominent place on global and local policy agendas, evolving from ...
Genetic variations in the TP53 pathway in native americans strongly suggest adaptation to the high altitudes of the andes
(PLOS One, 2015-09-18)
Abstract.
The diversity of the five single nucleotide polymorphisms located in genes of the TP53 pathway (TP53, rs1042522; MDM2, rs2279744; MDM4, rs1563828; USP7, rs1529916; and
LIF, rs929271) were studied in a total of ...
Inhibition of peroxisome proliferator gamma (PPARɣ) : a potential link between chronic maternal hypoxia and impaired fetal growth
(Journal of Women's Health, 2013)
Background and Objective: Chronic maternal hypoxia impairs
fetal growth and increases the incidence of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). To identify the mechanisms underlying these hypoxia-related effects, we evaluated ...
