Expedition 5300: limits of human adaptations in the highest city in the world
J Physiol. 2023 Dec 26. doi: 10.1113/JP284550. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTExposure to chronic hypobaric hypoxia imposes a significant physiological burden to more than 80 million humans living above 2500 m throughout the world. Among them, 50 000 live in the world's highest city, La Rinconada, located at 5000-5300 m in southern Peru. Expedition 5300 is the first scientific and medical programme led in La Rinconada to investigate the physiological adaptations and altitude-related health issues in this unique population. Dwellers from La Rinconada have very high haemoglobin concentration (20.3 ± 2.4 g/dL; n = 57) and tho...

What can insects teach us about hearing loss?
J Physiol. 2023 Dec 21. doi: 10.1113/JP281281. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOver the last three decades, insects have been utilized to provide a deep and fundamental understanding of many human diseases and disorders. Here, we present arguments for insects as models to understand general principles underlying hearing loss. Despite ∼600 million years since the last common ancestor of vertebrates and invertebrates, we share an overwhelming degree of genetic homology particularly with respect to auditory organ development and maintenance. Despite the anatomical differences between human and insect auditory organs, both sha...

Impaired cerebrovascular CO < sub > 2 < /sub > reactivity at high altitude in prematurely born adults
In conclusion, exposure to high altitude revealed different cerebrovascular responses in preterm- compared with term-born adults, despite similar ventilatory responses. These findings suggest a blunted cerebrovascular response at high altitude in preterm-born adults, which might predispose these individuals to an increased risk of high-altitude illnesses. KEY POINTS: Cerebral haemodynamics and cerebrovascular reactivity in normoxia are known to be similar between term-born and prematurely born adults. In contrast, acute exposure to high altitude unveiled different cerebrovascular responses to hypoxia, hypercapnia and hypoc...
