Scientists find a good treatment target for pulmonary hypertension

The vascular smooth muscle cells that normally give blood vessel walls strength and flexibility proliferate and become destructive in pulmonary hypertension, a typically rapidly progressing condition that makes it hard to get blood inside our lungs and oxygen to our bodies.

Individuals with autosomal and X-linked recessive deficiency of IRAK-4 and MyD88 are more susceptible to developing hypoxemic COVID-19 pneumonia

Researchers identified that individuals with a deficiency of myeloid differentiation primary response 88 (MyD88) and interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 (IRAK-4) due to an autosomal recessive condition were highly susceptible to developing hypoxemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia when infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Scientists discover how excess oxygen changes a handful of proteins in the cells

When it comes to oxygen, you can have too much of a good thing. Breathing air that contains higher levels of oxygen than the usual 21 percent found in Earth's atmosphere can cause organ damage, seizures, and even death in people and animals, particularly if it's in excess of the body's oxygen needs.

Research helps explain the metabolic differences of people living at high altitudes

Compared to those of us who live at sea level, the 2 million people worldwide who live above 4,500 meters (or 14,764 feet) of elevation - about the height of Mount Rainier, Mount Whitney, and many Colorado and Alaska peaks - have lower rates of metabolic diseases such as diabetes, coronary artery disease, hypercholesterolemia, and obesity.
