Inflammatory gene expression during acute high‐altitude exposure

Abstract excerpt

The molecular signalling pathways that regulate inflammation and the response to hypoxia share significant crosstalk and appear to play major roles in high-altitude acclimatization and adaptation. Several studies demonstrate increases in circulating candidate inflammatory markers during acute high-altitude exposure, but significant gaps remain in our understanding of how inflammation and immune function change at...
