Intermittent hypoxic stimulation promotes efficient expression of Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and exerts a chondroprotective effect in an animal osteoarthritis model.

Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α plays an important role in the homeostasis of articular cartilage in hypoxic environments. Therefore, modulation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α by regulating the oxygen environment could be a useful treatment for osteoarthritis. This study aimed to assess the chondroprote...
