AI Technical Summary
Existing drugs lack specific treatment for hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension, and are expensive with significant side effects. They are not suitable for long-term prevention and intervention in large-scale high-altitude exposure populations, and there is a lack of safe, economical, and effective prevention and treatment strategies.
By using docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to regulate the ubiquitination and degradation of hypoxia-inducible factor-2α (HIF-2α) protein, abnormal proliferation and migration of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells are inhibited, thereby improving pulmonary vascular remodeling and cardiomyocyte function through a multi-level synergistic mechanism.
It significantly improves the pathological changes of pulmonary hypertension under hypoxic conditions, enhances aerobic endurance, reduces pulmonary vascular remodeling, and restores cardiopulmonary function. It is suitable for preventive intervention and therapeutic applications for people living, working, training, and traveling at high altitudes.
