The HMOX2 polymorphism contributes to the carotid body chemoreflex in European sea-level residents by regulating hypoxic ventilatory responses

This study investigates whether a functional single nucleotide polymorphism of HMOX2 (heme oxygenase-2) (rs4786504 T>C) is involved in individual chemosensitivity to acute hypoxia, as assessed by ventilatory responses, in European individuals. These responses were obtained at rest and during...
