“…In the GO, the upregulated DE genes were involved in the reactive oxygen species activity, oxygen ions and peroxides, lipid peroxidation and so on; the downregulated DE genes were involved in the decrease of immunological ability. All the changes can be caused by oxidative stress, such as cancer suppressor [23], cell normal functions [24], special responses for pathogens [25], maximal actions, and antigen presentation [26] (Figure 6). Pathway analysis revealed that, in intestinal mucosa tissues of participants from high altitude, many pathway genes had aberrant expression and may be also related with oxidative stress, especially in inflammatory bowel diseases [27, 28], myeloperoxidase [29], ROS production [10], apoptotic cell death [30], tissue damage [31], interleukin-1 [32], oxidative modification [33], cystic fibrosis [34], natural killer cells activity [35], lymphocytes [36], fibrinolysis [37] and so on (Figure 7).…”
