Second Low-oxygen Pathway That Promotes Cell Survival In Low-oxygen Conditions Hints At Cancer, Cardiovascular Disease Physiology

... Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine have identified a second molecular pathway that promotes cell survival in low-oxygen conditions. By teasing apart the details of cellular adaptation during oxygen deprivation, or hypoxia, the researchers hope to gain a better understanding of the abnormal hypoxic environments that are characteristic of many diseases, including solid-tumor cancers and stroke... click link for more info. ...
