Abstract: The pulmonary circulation responds to hypoxia with vasoconstriction, a mechanism that helps to adapt to short-lived hypoxic episodes. When sustained, hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) may become deleterious, causing right ventricular hypertrophy and failure, and contributing… read more here.
