Scientists have identified 16 genes that breast cancer cells use to survive in the bloodstream after they've escaped the low-oxygen regions of a tumor. Each is a potential therapeutic target to stop ...

Scientists at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center have identified 16 genes that breast cancer cells use to survive in the ...

Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may develop pulmonary hypertension because of pulmonary vasoconstriction secondary to alveolar hypoxia with additional vasoconstriction ...

Alveolar hypoxia causes pulmonary vasoconstriction by a variety of actions on endothelium and smooth muscle. This increased pulmonary vascular resistance can be further compounded by reactive ...

Over the past two decades, intermittent hypoxic training (IHT), that is, a method where athletes live at or near sea level but train under hypoxic conditions, has gained unprecedented popularity. By ...

I’ve rarely seen hypoxic training spoken or written about in fitness content, and it’s surprising. The technique was highly ...

SaO 2 in hypoxia can be defended by increasing ventilatory drive; however, during heavy exercise, many athletes demonstrate limitations to expiratory flow and are unable to increase ventilation in ...

It also means local hypoxia in a given part of a body sometimes resulting from constriction (such as vasoconstriction, thrombosis or embolism). Ischemia comprises not only insufficiency of oxygen ...

According to Prolong Pharmaceuticals, the investigational product is expected to reduce the effects of ischemia by preventing vasoconstriction and reducing inflammation, allowing for the delivery of ...
