This project investigates how genetic factors influence physiological responses to high-altitude hypoxia. By analyzing genetic data, metabolic profiles, and exercise performance in Andean populations, the research aims to distinguish between healthy adaptations and maladaptive conditions like chronic mountain sickness.
High-altitude hypoxia is a known physiological stressor.
Genetic signals associated with high-altitude adaptation have been identified in populations native to this environment, yet the links to molecular/physiological processes affording protection against hypoxic stress, specifically those related to metabolic function, remain largely unknown.
Conversely, a significant proportion of Andean highlanders develop chronic mountain sickness (CMS), characterised by excessive erythrocytosis and cardio…
