Physiology and Transcriptomics Analysis Reveal the Contribution of Lungs on High-Altitude Hypoxia Adaptation in Tibetan Sheep

The Tibetan sheep is an indigenous species on the Tibetan plateau with excellent adaptability to high-altitude hypoxia and is distributed at altitudes of 2500–5000 m. The high-altitude hypoxia adaptation of Tibetan sheep requires adaptive reshaping of multiple tissues and organs, especially the lung...
