Telomere Dynamics and DNA Damage Markers in Association with High-Altitude Pulmonary Edema

2026-08-24

Abstract excerpt

High-altitude (HA, >2500 m) hypobaric hypoxia, together with oxidative stress and ultraviolet radiation, can induce DNA damage and disrupt telomere homeostasis. Telomeres are essential for chromosomal integrity and cellular viability and are particularly vulnerable to oxidative damage, which may contribute to High-Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE) and its severity. The association among telomere dynamics, oxidati...
