Mechanisms underlying hypoxia tolerance in Drosophila melanogaster: hairy as a metabolic switch.
Hypoxia-induced cell injury has been related to multiple pathological conditions. In order to render hypoxia-sensitive cells and tissues resistant to low O2 environment, in this current study, we used Drosophila melanogaster as a model to dissect the mechanisms underlying hypoxia-tolerance. A D. mel...
