Physiology and Pathophysiology of Oxygen Sensitivity
Oxygen is an essential requirement for metabolism in mammals and many other animals. Therefore, pathways that sense a reduction in available oxygen are critical for organism survival. Higher mammals developed specialized organs to detect and respond to changes in O<sub>2</sub> content to...
