In addition to the basal glucose uptake, insulin-stimulated glucose uptake was examined in the hypoxia model. The glucose uptake was enhanced by 82.2% at 2 h of hypoxia treatment (Figure 1c).

Finally, in their model of hypoxia, they showed that interfering with early inflammation prevents pulmonary hypertension from developing. In work recently published in Arteriosclerosis ...
