Exploring molecular shifts induced by pseudohypoxia in gray seal blubber


Listen Later

In this episode of The APS Publications Podcast, featuring AJP-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Medicine, author Laura Oller discusses her recent article, "Molecular shifts induced by pseudohypoxia in gray seal blubber: an ex vivo approach." This study explored how blubber regulates responses to chemically induced pseudohypoxia. This study showed a faster, but sustained, increase in molecular markers of hypoxia. It documents downstream molecular responses to those hypoxia-induced changes, revealing important adaptations in mechanisms that induce and sustain the hypoxia response in blubber.
