  • Cardiovascular and renal effects of chronic exposure to high altitude 
    Hurtado, A.; Escudero, E.; Pando, J.; Sharma, S.; Johnson, R.J. (Oxford University Press, 2012)
    Over 140 million people live at high altitude, defined as living at an altitude of 2400 m or more above sea level. Subjects living under these conditions are continuously living under hypoxic conditions and, depending on ...
  • Five hundred years of mercury exposure and adaptation. 
    Lombardi, Guido; Lanzirotti, Antonio; Qualls, Clifford; Socola, Francisco; Ali, Abdul-Mehdi; Appenzeller, Otto (Hindawi, 2012)
    Mercury is added to the biosphere by anthropogenic activities raising the question of whether changes in the human chromatin, induced by mercury, in a parental generation could allow adaptation of their descendants to ...
  • High altitude renal syndrome (HARS) 
    Hurtado Arestegui, A.; Fuquay, R.; Sirota, J.; Swenson, E.R.; Schoene, R.B.; Jefferson, J.A.; Chen, W.; Yu, X.-Q.; Kelly, J.P.; Johnson, R.J.; Escudero, E. (American Society of Nephrolog, 2011)
    More than 140 million people live permanently at high altitude (>2400 m) under hypoxic conditions that challenge basic physiology. Here we present a short historical review of the populating of these regions and of evidence ...
  • LINE-1 and EPAS1 DNA methylation associations with high-altitude exposure 
    Childebayeva, Ainash; Jones, Tamara R.; Goodrich, Jaclyn M.; León-Velarde, Fabiola; Rivera Chira, Maria Concepcion; Kiyamu Tsuchiya, Melisa; Brutsaert, Tom D.; Dolinoy, Dana C.; Bigham, Abigail W. (Taylor and Francis, 2019)
    Recent discoveries indicate a genetic basis for high-altitude adaptation among human groups who have resided at high altitude for millennia, including Andeans, Tibetans, and Ethiopians. Yet, genetics alone does not explain ...
  • Local Host Adaptation and Use of a Novel Host in the Seed Beetle Megacerus eulophus 
    Stotz, Gisela C.; Suárez, Lorena H.; Gonzáles, Wilfredo L.; Gianoli, Ernesto (Public Library of Science, 2013)
    Spatial variation in host plant availability may lead to specialization in host use and local host adaptation in herbivorous insects, which may involve a cost in performance on other hosts. We studied two geographically ...
  • SENP1, but not fetal hemoglobin, differentiates Andean highlanders with chronic mountain sickness from healthy individuals among Andean highlanders 
    Hsieh, Matthew-M.; Callacondo, David; Rojas-Camayo, Jose; Quesada-Olarte, Jose; Wang, Xunde; Uchida, Naoya; Maric, Irina; Remaley, Alan-T.; León-Velarde, Fabiola; Villafuerte, Francisco C.; Tisdale, John-F. (Elsevier, 2016)
    Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) results from chronic hypoxia. It is unclear why certain highlanders develop CMS. We hypothesized that modest increases in fetal hemoglobin (HbF) are associated with lower CMS severity. In ...
