Effects of aging on accompanying intermittent hypoxia in a bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis mouse model
Heayon Lee, In Kyoung Kim, Jeonghyeon Im, Bae Suk Jin, Hwan Hee Kim, Sei Won Kim, Chang Dong Yeo, Sang Haak Lee
Korean J Intern Med. 2023;38(6):934-944. Published online October 5, 2023
Background/Aims: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is prevalent in older patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF); however, it is underrecognized. OSA is characterized by intermittent hypoxia (IH) and sleep fragmentation. In this study, we evaluated the effects of IH in an older mouse model of..

Combination of carboplatin and intermittent normobaric hyperoxia synergistically suppresses benzo[a]pyrene-induced lung cancer
Hea Yon Lee, In Kyoung Kim, Hye In Lee, Hwa Young Lee, Hye Seon Kang, Chang Dong Yeo, Hyun Hui Kang, Hwa Sik Moon, Sang Haak Lee
Korean J Intern Med. 2018;33(3):541-551. Published online December 15, 2017
Background/Aims: We explored the effects of intermittent normobaric hyperoxia alone or combined with chemotherapy on the growth, general morphology, oxidative stress, and apoptosis of benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P)-induced lung tumors in mice.
Methods: Female A/J mice were given a single dose of B[a]P and ..
