Abstract

Developmental hypoxia has profound and persistent effects on the vertebrate cardiovascular system, but the nature, magnitude and long-term outcome of the hypoxic consequences are species-specific. Here we aim to identify common and novel cardiovascular responses among vertebrates that encounter developmental hypoxia, and we discuss the possible medical and ecological implications.
