ADAPTIVE AND MALADAPTIVE CARDIORESPIRATORY RESPONSES TO CONTINUOUS AND INTERMITTENT HYPOXIA MEDIATED BY HYPOXIA-INDUCIBLE FACTORS 1 AND 2 (2012, background): “Tibetans have developed increased ventilatory capacity, whereas Andeans have higher hemoglobin concentrations than lowlanders (10).”
The yak genome and adaptation to life at high altitude (2012, background): “…substitutions for different GO categories revealed an enrichment of elevated pairwise Ka / Ks values in the hypoxia response 25–27 and energy metabolism 28,29 categories, including in ‘regulation of blood vessel size’, ‘regulation of angiogenesis’, ‘heme binding’,…”
On the nature of seizure dynamics. (2014, background): “This concept, that there are many functional biological pathways that produce the same outcome, was developed and verified experimentally in simple neuronal networks (Marder and Taylor, 2011) and is present in human biology as well (Beall, 2007).”
