Physiological Hypoxia and Pharmacological HIF Stabilization Induce Distinct but Overlapping Responses in Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells
Background/Objectives: Hypoxia is a major contributor to the development of retinal diseases by promoting metabolic adaptation and pathological angiogenesis through hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) signaling. HIF-prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors (HIF-PHIs), which stabilize HIF under normoxic conditions, are widely used to t...
