Elevation as a selective force on mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes of the Phrynocephalus lizards in the Tibetan plateau

Yuanting Jin et al.

Summary: This study investigates positive selection in respiratory chain complexes and their assembly factors in 15 Chinese Phrynocephalus lizard species living in high-altitude environments. The results show that lineages evolving from low to high altitude have stronger signals of positive selection, indicating potential adaptations to extreme high elevations through genetic mechanisms.

Genome-Wide DNA Methylation Changes Associated With High-Altitude Acclimatization During an Everest Base Camp Trek

Ainash Childebayeva et al.

Summary: The physiological response to high-altitude hypoxia involves genetic and non-genetic factors, including epigenetic modifications. Epigenetic changes in HIF and RAS pathways were significant at high altitudes. The study identified numerous differentially methylated positions and regions associated with altitude ascent, as well as an association between ACE gene polymorphism and oxygen saturation.
