Hypoxia News and Research

RSS

Hypoxia is a condition in which there is a decrease in the oxygen supply to a tissue. In cancer treatment, the level of hypoxia in a tumor may help predict the response of the tumor to the treatment.

Restrictive oxygenation target in comatose, post cardiac arrest patients does not cause harm

A restrictive oxygenation target in comatose patients resuscitated after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest does not worsen survival or neurological outcome compared with a liberal target, according to late breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2022.

Discovery explains how impaired metabolism triggers neuroendocrine tumors in the adrenal glands

Researchers have deciphered a signaling cascade through which inborn errors in metabolism provoke deadly neuroendocrine tumors in the adrenal glands.

Study reveals the intertumoral heterogeneity of METex14 skipping positive NSCLCs

A study presented today at the IASLC World Conference on Lung Cancer 2022 in Vienna disclosed the clinical-relevant intertumoral heterogeneity of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) driven by MET exon 14 skipping.

The impact of cold agglutinin syndrome on clinical presentations in COVID-19

Researchers presented two cases to highlight the impact of cold agglutinin syndrome on clinical presentations in COVID-19.

Terminally exhausted T cells may remain competent for transcription, researchers say

During a battle with cancer, T cells can become exhausted and are no longer able to function properly. The early phase of exhaustion can sometimes be reversed with immunotherapy drugs, but once T cells become too exhausted, it had been thought that this state was irreversible. However, new insights from University of Pittsburgh and UPMC researchers suggest that even the most fatigued T cells can be revived.

Study finds COVID associated with abnormal placental pathologies in nearly 50% of cohort

Researchers describe the impact of placental morphological changes in COVID-19 on pregnancy outcomes.

COVID-19 related acute muscle loss linked to worse outcomes

Researchers investigate acute sarcopenia prevalence in COVID-19 patients and the outcomes of this complication.

Study finds white adipose tissue to be the most vulnerable organ to obesity-related metabolic changes

When the body is subjected to a high-calorie diet, the physiological response is not homogeneous and some organs or tissues are more sensitive to metabolic stress.

Novel nanoligomer approach to treat severe COVID-19

Researchers discuss the biodistribution and safety of a novel nanoligomer SBCoV207, which was used to targeted miR-2392 in a murine model.

Evidence for a specific anti-inflammatory metabolic signature in long-COVID

A recent research paper posted to the medRxiv* preprint server illustrated anti-inflammatory and hypo-metabolic fingerprints in long coronavirus disease (COVID) syndrome (LCS) using pan-omics plasma assessments.

Moffitt researchers discover how YAP1 protein contributes to angiogenesis in cancers

The formation of new blood vessels, also known as angiogenesis, is critical to the development and progression of cancer.

Cognitive fatigue due to exercise in low-oxygen conditions can be avoided by maintaining oxygen saturation

When physically demanding activities are performed at high altitude or in other low-oxygen environments, excellent coordination, judgment, and decision-making are important. In some cases, such as when mountaineering, these capabilities may be the difference between life and death.
