Defect of Adaptation to Hypoxia in Patients With COPD Due to Reduction of Histone Deacetylase 7

Background Hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1 plays an important role in cellular adaptation to hypoxia by activating oxygen-regulated genes such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and erythropoietin.
