The transcriptional response to hypoxia and the role of hypoxia inducible factors have been extensively studied. Yet, hypoxic cells also adapt to hypoxia by modulating protein synthesis, metabolism and nutrient uptake. Understanding these processes could shed light on pathologies associated with hypoxia, including cardiovascular diseases and cancer, and disease mechanisms, such as inflammation and wound repair.
