Objective: To investigate the expressions of sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) and S1P G-protein-coupled receptor 1 (S1PR1) in pulmonary ischemia reperfusion injury (PIRI) tissues and explore their relationship.
Methods: The model of PIRI was established male C57BL/6 mice (=8). The left pulmonary hilum was occluded for 30 min with a microvascular clamp through a left thoracotomy.
Acute mountain sickness (AMS) is usually seen in unacclimatized individuals ascending to a high altitude within a short period of time.
