The regulatory mechanisms of individual rat resistance to acute hypobaric hypoxia were studied using the functional indices of the central nervous system (neurochemical and behavioral) and the hematopoietic system. The resistance to hypoxia was evaluated by the time of attitudinal reflex maintenance and recovery after decompression to a simulated altitude of 11200 m. Animals with different types of tolerance to hypoxia demonstrated different metabolic backgrounds of neurochemical processes (which were most balanced in moderately resistant rats). This agrees with the differences in active behavior and adaptive efficiency of these animals exposed to mild open-field stress. High functional activity of erythropoiesis and early leukocytic response were observed in hypoxia-tolerant rats.

The mechanisms underlying the low incidence of myopia at high altitudes remain unclear. Choroidal thickness and the dopaminergic system have been shown to be closely associated with myopia development. This study aimed to investigate the effects of high altitude exposure on choroidal thickness and the dopaminergic system.

High altitude characterized by the low partial pressure of the oxygen is a life-threatening condition that contributes to the development of acute pulmonary edema and hypoxic lung injury. In this study, we aimed to investigate the contribution of some inflammatory and oxidative stress markers along with antioxidant system enzymes in the pathogenesis of HAPE (high-altitude pulmonary edema) formation. We incorporated the study on 42 male rats to unravel the role of mast cells (MCs) and TNF-α in the lung after the effect of acute hypobaric hypoxia.

Background: Posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) is directly associated with early acute articular cartilage injury. Inhibition of cartilage destruction immediately following joint damage can effectively slow or prevent PTOA progression. Therefore, we sought to determine intervention targets and therapeutic strategies in the acute stage of cartilage injury.

Article Synopsis
- Intermittent hypoxia training (IHT) and methazolamide (MTZ) show limited effectiveness individually in preventing high-altitude cerebral edema (HACE), with few studies exploring their combined use.
- A rat model was developed to study the effects of IHT and MTZ on behavior, brain water content, pathology, and protein expression after exposure to hypobaric hypoxia and exhaustive exercise.
- The combination of long-course IHT and MTZ demonstrated the most significant improvement in spatial and memory function, brain pathology, and protein levels, indicating a potential effective approach for preventing HACE.

Background: High altitude cerebral edema (HACE) is a condition where the central nervous system experiences severe impairment as a result of sudden oxygen deprivation at high elevations. At present, effective measures for preventing and treating this condition are still lacking. Eleutheroside B (EB), the primary natural active compound found in the , has demonstrated various biological functions.
