Transient intermittent hypoxia exposure disrupts neonatal bone strength

Transient intermittent hypoxia exposure disrupts neonatal bone strength

A brief intermittent hypoxia (IH, ambient O2 levels alternating between room air and 12% O2) for 1h immediately after birth resulted in pancreatic islet dysfunction associated with zinc deficiency as previously reported. We hypothesized that IH exposure modulates zinc homeostasis in bone as well, wh...
