High-altitude environments, characterized by hypoxia, low temperatures, and intense ultraviolet radiation, pose significant challenges to human physiology and health. DNA methylation, as a key epigenetic regulatory mechanism, plays a central role in human adaptation to high-altitude environments and in disease pathogenesis.
