Abstract excerpt
Hypoxia drives pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) proliferation and phenotypic remodeling, processes central to vascular adaptation. Yaks, native to high-altitude environments, provide a natural model for studying cellular responses to chronic hypoxia. In this study, hypoxic exposure enhanced yak PASMCs' proliferation and induced phenotypic transformation. Transcriptome profiling revealed that hypoxia...
