Possible Hypoxia Signaling Induced Alteration of Glucose Homeostasis in Rats Exposed to Chronic Intermittent Hypoxia - Role of Antioxidant (Vitamin C) and Ca2+ Channel Blocker (Cilnidipine)

Abstract: Abstract:Background: Hyperglycemia founds to be a regulator of HIF-1 gene expression but the regulation of HIF-1 on glucose homeostasis is unclear. Objective: To determine whether chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) alters glucose regulation and such alterations can revert through treatments with either antioxidant (vitamin c) or calcium channel blocker (cilnidipine) in male albino rats. Methods: The rats were divided into six groups i.e. normoxia (21 % oxygen), CIH (10% oxygen with cycle time 3:1.5; 8h/day), n… Show more
