High-altitude hypoxia. A challenging strain targeting cellular redox homeostasis

After putting forward some evidence of hypobaric hypoxia as a particular stimulus causing systemic, tissue and cellular challenging strains, the present short review is focused on the current findings relating the reasoning of increased tissue generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS...
