Pulmonary Circulation, 2018•journals.sagepub.comWe show that hypoxia inducible factor 2α (HIF2α) is highly expressed in patients with
pulmonary hypertension (PH). HIF2α is expressed in every patient with congenital
diaphragmatic hernia, while only half of the controls express HIF2α. Our data suggest that
HIF2α is a link between hypoxia and the development of PH.
